00:02:19,594 --> 00:02:22,432
Yeah yeah, I I did a rewatch of the, of the,

00:02:22,488 --> 00:02:25,120
of the Emissary. It's just. Oh,
47
00:02:25,312 --> 00:02:28,044
those m. Those milestone like
48
00:02:28,344 --> 00:02:30,976
episodes or events in Trek
49
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,074
history, you know, you gotta, you gotta like
50
00:02:33,804 --> 00:02:36,676
you know, gotta take time to, to, to re.
51
00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:39,554
Watch and you know the thing that Well, before
52
00:02:39,594 --> 00:02:42,466
I jump into my thoughts. What, what is it? Let me ask you.
53
00:02:42,490 --> 00:02:45,330
Which version of Trek is your favorite version of track or
54
00:02:45,402 --> 00:02:46,098
favorite series?
55
00:02:46,186 --> 00:02:49,026
>> Sabrina Wood: See, I have problems with this all the time because as I
56
00:02:49,050 --> 00:02:51,858
was, we were talking a little earlier and I am an original,
57
00:02:51,906 --> 00:02:54,706
I'm an OG girl. Like I am the 10 year
58
00:02:54,730 --> 00:02:57,554
old that saw the first
59
00:02:57,674 --> 00:02:59,614
episode of Star Trek. So,
60
00:03:00,574 --> 00:03:03,468
Kirk is my guy, you know, TOS is it. I
61
00:03:03,476 --> 00:03:06,172
mean, I've seen that like 29 bazillion
62
00:03:06,268 --> 00:03:09,068
times. But then Deep Space Nine
63
00:03:09,156 --> 00:03:11,932
comes out and rocks my world. And we have, you know,
64
00:03:11,988 --> 00:03:14,860
Captain Cisco's like, that's a whole nother story.
65
00:03:14,932 --> 00:03:17,884
So he's in my heart too. And then we have my
66
00:03:17,924 --> 00:03:20,796
girl. So Nequa Martin Green coming in there. It's Captain Burnham.
67
00:03:20,860 --> 00:03:23,836
So I, I can't pick a franchise. I. Those are
68
00:03:23,860 --> 00:03:26,364
my three, those are my things, you know,
69
00:03:26,744 --> 00:03:29,604
where I really feel an affinity
70
00:03:30,184 --> 00:03:33,024
to the captain, let's put it that way. I mean, it
71
00:03:33,064 --> 00:03:35,792
shows. Yes, I love all three shows, but those
72
00:03:35,848 --> 00:03:37,844
three particular captains,
73
00:03:38,184 --> 00:03:41,126
man. Yeah, I would go, I would follow. they
74
00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:44,006
said, you know, you know, are we gonna go? We're gonna get court martial.
75
00:03:44,070 --> 00:03:46,114
I would be like, yeah, I'm going.
76
00:03:47,854 --> 00:03:50,822
>> Will: He'll be like, Kirk. Whenever he stole the Enterprise In Star Trek 3,
77
00:03:50,878 --> 00:03:52,006
it's like, yep, I'll be.
78
00:03:52,030 --> 00:03:53,368
>> Sabrina Wood: Right on the ship. Yep.
79
00:03:53,486 --> 00:03:56,418
>> Will: Yeah, just be like, sulu, am I. Give us the word.
80
00:03:56,466 --> 00:03:59,346
>> Sabrina Wood: And yeah, I'm like, burn them. Let's go. Let's go through
81
00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:02,194
the whole wormhole. Let's go. 900. Yep, 900 years.
82
00:04:02,234 --> 00:04:03,694
Let's go, girl. Where we going?
83
00:04:03,994 --> 00:04:06,946
>> Will: Yeah, for real, for real. Yeah. You know, for me, you
84
00:04:06,970 --> 00:04:09,826
know, TOS definitely has a special place in my heart because
85
00:04:09,850 --> 00:04:12,600
that's, you know, I, I was a kid growing up
86
00:04:12,752 --> 00:04:15,606
in the syndicated world. so of course watching the
87
00:04:15,630 --> 00:04:18,614
shows in the evenings, you know, they had the local
88
00:04:18,654 --> 00:04:21,606
TV station had their, you know, either it was
89
00:04:21,630 --> 00:04:24,182
either 7:00 at night or sometimes,
90
00:04:24,358 --> 00:04:27,142
or 11 or 11:30 after the late local news.
91
00:04:27,198 --> 00:04:29,126
And they would have, they had actually had.
92
00:04:29,310 --> 00:04:30,422
>> Sabrina Wood: In Boston.
93
00:04:30,598 --> 00:04:33,334
>> Will: Yeah. And, and they had actually had a set
94
00:04:33,454 --> 00:04:36,452
built, for the show. And,
95
00:04:36,508 --> 00:04:39,382
and, and so they had a, they had a host, and he
96
00:04:39,438 --> 00:04:42,424
would introduce the episodes. Yeah, this was in, this
97
00:04:42,464 --> 00:04:45,368
is in Charlotte and and, yeah,
98
00:04:45,416 --> 00:04:48,184
wbtv. And they would have H A
99
00:04:48,224 --> 00:04:50,920
Thompson, he would like, host the show
100
00:04:50,992 --> 00:04:53,656
and introduce the episode and, and
101
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,318
then, have a little break and. Yeah, so that was, that was my
102
00:04:56,406 --> 00:04:57,674
experience growing up.
103
00:04:58,214 --> 00:05:01,022
>> Sabrina Wood: That is very different. I've never heard any city
104
00:05:01,078 --> 00:05:03,646
doing it that way. I've seen her, I've heard cities like, you
105
00:05:03,670 --> 00:05:06,606
know, being faithful and playing it. But had
106
00:05:06,630 --> 00:05:08,510
a set in a host.
107
00:05:08,662 --> 00:05:11,056
>> Will: Yeah, but, but the thing for me
108
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,144
was with the original series is once
109
00:05:14,184 --> 00:05:16,992
we got, you know, once you got the, once we got our first,
110
00:05:16,954 --> 00:05:19,842
vcr and you Know, we're able to, like,
111
00:05:19,866 --> 00:05:22,514
go to Blockbuster or whatever, the local video store to rent
112
00:05:22,562 --> 00:05:25,426
them. I never realized how chopped up those.
113
00:05:25,498 --> 00:05:27,938
Those things were, those old
114
00:05:27,994 --> 00:05:30,562
episodes until I was able to watch the
115
00:05:30,586 --> 00:05:32,450
uncut versions on
116
00:05:32,570 --> 00:05:35,380
VHS tapes. you know, and used
117
00:05:35,420 --> 00:05:35,764
to.
118
00:05:35,852 --> 00:05:38,820
>> Sabrina Wood: Used to drive me crazy because I saw the original
119
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:41,200
full versions when they went into
120
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,176
syndication. You know, you usually didn't get the opening, the cold
121
00:05:44,208 --> 00:05:47,168
open. They cut that out. And then they would shorten
122
00:05:47,184 --> 00:05:50,112
a lot of scenes. So sometimes I would go, wait a minute. Didn't this
123
00:05:50,136 --> 00:05:53,024
thing start differently the last time? And then by the time, you know,
124
00:05:53,032 --> 00:05:55,920
you watch syndication so much you forgot about it.
125
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,976
And then, you know, come around now and you're
126
00:05:59,008 --> 00:06:01,952
seeing it in streaming and it's like, oh, they've repl. They fixed it.
127
00:06:01,976 --> 00:06:04,800
They gave me all of it back again. And some of it you hadn't seen in
128
00:06:04,840 --> 00:06:07,818
years. But I tell you a funny story about taping
129
00:06:07,834 --> 00:06:10,720
it, because like, like I said, I. I saw the. The originals in
130
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,696
all those years when it was. Yeah,
131
00:06:13,728 --> 00:06:16,390
my girlfriend went into, the Peace Corps, and she was
132
00:06:16,430 --> 00:06:19,398
stationed in Ghana, Africa, and we
133
00:06:19,454 --> 00:06:22,198
would send her care packages. And I remember once
134
00:06:22,334 --> 00:06:25,126
taping with a cassette tape, you know, taking the little
135
00:06:25,198 --> 00:06:27,958
microphone, putting it up to the speakers of the television and
136
00:06:28,014 --> 00:06:30,694
taping the audio of a Star Trek
137
00:06:30,742 --> 00:06:33,722
episode and putting the cassette in box with, you
138
00:06:33,746 --> 00:06:36,666
know, toilet paper and tuna fish and whatever else we send
139
00:06:36,698 --> 00:06:39,690
in her and mailing it over. And don't, you know,
140
00:06:39,730 --> 00:06:42,682
when she came back from Ghana, she said, you don't know
141
00:06:42,706 --> 00:06:45,338
how many times we listened to that tape
142
00:06:45,434 --> 00:06:48,298
you sent over of Star Trek. She said it went
143
00:06:48,354 --> 00:06:51,146
to all of the volunteers that were stationed
144
00:06:51,178 --> 00:06:54,122
all near her, you know, and now when I'm thinking of it, it
145
00:06:54,146 --> 00:06:56,550
sounds like, you know, hi, Bob. You know, like,
146
00:06:58,130 --> 00:07:00,836
you know, they have this one. I don't
147
00:07:00,868 --> 00:07:03,668
remember what episode it was, but they were all
148
00:07:03,724 --> 00:07:06,660
so grateful for that. That cassette that we
149
00:07:06,700 --> 00:07:08,068
made of Star Trek.
150
00:07:08,244 --> 00:07:08,644
>> Will: Yeah.
151
00:07:08,692 --> 00:07:09,560
>> Sabrina Wood: Crazy.
152
00:07:10,220 --> 00:07:13,140
>> Will: Yeah. Ah, I mean, that's, you know, that's. That. That's the thing about this
153
00:07:13,180 --> 00:07:16,020
fan base. It's just so, so passionate and so.
154
00:07:16,060 --> 00:07:19,044
And people just figure out so many ways and, you know, and I
155
00:07:19,052 --> 00:07:21,940
love how all of us have our, Our
156
00:07:21,980 --> 00:07:24,548
entry points into Star Trek, whether
157
00:07:24,604 --> 00:07:27,546
it's someone like you who, you know, grew up, literally
158
00:07:27,578 --> 00:07:30,266
grew up on the original series. Someone like me
159
00:07:30,418 --> 00:07:33,338
who came along, you know, late 70s, early
160
00:07:33,394 --> 00:07:34,870
80s, watching the thing.
161
00:07:35,650 --> 00:07:37,994
>> Sabrina Wood: Original series, but I still grew up.
162
00:07:38,002 --> 00:07:40,694
>> Will: On the original series. but, yeah, yeah,
163
00:07:40,742 --> 00:07:43,560
but, but, yeah, but Deep Space Nine is my favorite and
164
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,152
one thing I noticed when I was watching the the
165
00:07:46,176 --> 00:07:49,140
Emissary again is
166
00:07:49,260 --> 00:07:52,202
just how so the. How
167
00:07:52,226 --> 00:07:55,098
they just laid that that foundation. And,
168
00:07:55,154 --> 00:07:58,010
and then when you think about what to leave behind when we do
169
00:07:58,050 --> 00:08:00,986
get full circle at the end with the closing of the series,
170
00:08:01,058 --> 00:08:03,710
how how just perfectly contained
171
00:08:04,050 --> 00:08:06,810
the. That series. That series really really was.
172
00:08:06,850 --> 00:08:08,950
And, and and I'm glad that people
173
00:08:09,490 --> 00:08:12,070
are, are discovering it now.
174
00:08:12,410 --> 00:08:15,202
Oh ah. You know, because it was always sort of.
175
00:08:15,306 --> 00:08:18,272
And it's still some. To some degree you
176
00:08:18,296 --> 00:08:21,088
know, the, the redheaded stepchild of the franchise because
177
00:08:21,144 --> 00:08:23,740
this it is so different.
178
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,954
But but at the same time I was just like, you know, one, I
179
00:08:26,962 --> 00:08:29,530
hold the pilot holds up really really well. But
180
00:08:29,570 --> 00:08:32,140
two, just how how really how
181
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:35,552
beginning, middle and end that that series really had.
182
00:08:35,656 --> 00:08:38,562
And and I'm glad to see them you know give some love now like
183
00:08:38,586 --> 00:08:41,586
Lower decks and some other some of the new track. But Yeah, but that,
184
00:08:41,610 --> 00:08:43,614
that's the DS9 is my favorite one.
185
00:08:44,214 --> 00:08:46,718
>> Sabrina Wood: You know, even though you mentioned that if, you
186
00:08:46,726 --> 00:08:49,724
know. Yeah it's funny that you mentioned that
187
00:08:49,674 --> 00:08:52,498
holding up really well because I think it is one of the shows that
188
00:08:52,538 --> 00:08:54,770
you can watch now. You know, they're all, you know,
189
00:08:54,794 --> 00:08:57,688
decades years old now. that
190
00:08:57,728 --> 00:09:00,344
you don't find so much cringe
191
00:09:00,536 --> 00:09:03,384
as you find in some of the old other series where they'll
192
00:09:03,416 --> 00:09:06,296
say something or there's some scene or something and you're like
193
00:09:06,352 --> 00:09:09,320
what were they thinking when they made this one?
194
00:09:09,424 --> 00:09:12,228
And, and I can't really think of
195
00:09:12,528 --> 00:09:15,304
a episode where you saying
196
00:09:15,376 --> 00:09:18,248
that in a DS9 where you're just like, oh,
197
00:09:18,328 --> 00:09:20,696
they got it so wrong. Yeah.
198
00:09:20,792 --> 00:09:23,080
>> Will: Yeah. There are no, there are no cos of honor in
199
00:09:23,104 --> 00:09:24,068
DS9.
200
00:09:25,408 --> 00:09:27,400
>> Sabrina Wood: Thank you. Thank you so much, my brother.
201
00:09:27,464 --> 00:09:30,280
>> Will: Oh my God. Yeah yeah, we're gonna talk
202
00:09:30,304 --> 00:09:31,108
about that.
203
00:09:31,408 --> 00:09:34,360
>> Sabrina Wood: Listen to the Sci Fi Sisters. we got a surprise for
204
00:09:34,384 --> 00:09:35,548
you about that one.
205
00:09:35,728 --> 00:09:38,340
>> Will: Okay, I'll have to look that one up. I think I'll have to look that
206
00:09:38,364 --> 00:09:41,266
episode up. But but speaking of the Sci Fi sisters, let's talk
207
00:09:41,290 --> 00:09:44,098
about your, your spin off show because that's why we
208
00:09:44,186 --> 00:09:47,054
we're here. I know you're starting your, your upcoming season.
209
00:09:47,464 --> 00:09:50,264
and I listened to most, I've listened to most of the
210
00:09:50,304 --> 00:09:53,176
first season of Cine Cine. Cine was it.
211
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,324
How's it Senna Cine Cin
212
00:09:55,824 --> 00:09:57,324
C. Okay.
213
00:09:58,064 --> 00:09:59,084
>> Sabrina Wood: Double sin
214
00:10:00,384 --> 00:10:01,242
squared.
215
00:10:01,408 --> 00:10:04,244
>> Will: Yeah. Since squared. I got it right to think the first time. But
216
00:10:04,424 --> 00:10:06,986
But yeah. So yeah. So Sabrina, let
217
00:10:07,010 --> 00:10:09,914
me just tell me how what inspired you to
218
00:10:09,954 --> 00:10:12,788
do this spin off show, from the
219
00:10:12,796 --> 00:10:13,460
sci fi.
220
00:10:13,572 --> 00:10:16,484
>> Sabrina Wood: I tell you. Well, Simpsons is short
221
00:10:16,524 --> 00:10:19,444
for the Cinnamon Cinephile, which is
222
00:10:19,564 --> 00:10:22,388
a, you know, avatar I created
223
00:10:22,436 --> 00:10:25,218
about, oh, five, or six. A couple, maybe a couple of years
224
00:10:25,258 --> 00:10:28,146
before I met up with the rest of the sci fi sisters.
225
00:10:28,242 --> 00:10:30,806
So. So I have been a film buff
226
00:10:30,902 --> 00:10:33,398
since time began. Like before Star
227
00:10:33,438 --> 00:10:36,310
Trek, I was. I wanted to.
228
00:10:36,414 --> 00:10:39,190
I watched like every Humphrey Bogart movie. I watched any kind of
229
00:10:39,214 --> 00:10:42,038
classic movie. My mother loved film. She named me
230
00:10:42,078 --> 00:10:44,958
after the movie Sabrina with Audrey Hepburn.
231
00:10:44,908 --> 00:10:47,908
even though I got a U instead of an A. Yeah, I was named after
232
00:10:47,948 --> 00:10:50,852
that movie. And she told me all the time and when it came on tv,
233
00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:53,780
just she and I would watch that thing and, oh my God, I love
234
00:10:53,804 --> 00:10:56,574
Audrey Burn. So I grew up loving films
235
00:10:56,606 --> 00:10:59,444
and Boston, was a great town
236
00:10:59,516 --> 00:11:02,288
because we had a lot of movie theaters. That whole, you
237
00:11:02,328 --> 00:11:04,928
know, rebirth of the 30 films came out when I was
238
00:11:04,968 --> 00:11:07,908
in college, maybe, you know, in the Brattle Theater.
239
00:11:07,956 --> 00:11:10,756
And we had the Orson Wells. We had all these theaters that were showing all
240
00:11:10,780 --> 00:11:13,700
these old school ball comedies. So I was just
241
00:11:13,772 --> 00:11:16,762
into it. And then, Way lady and I went off and became
242
00:11:16,778 --> 00:11:19,174
an accountant. So, you know, there you go. I had to get a job.
243
00:11:19,274 --> 00:11:22,134
but later I
244
00:11:22,174 --> 00:11:25,126
always had. It was. I remember, quite frankly, this is how
245
00:11:25,150 --> 00:11:27,846
it happened. I was getting divorced and
246
00:11:27,950 --> 00:11:30,614
I was really. That's just like, not in a good place. And my
247
00:11:30,654 --> 00:11:33,542
girlfriend said, think of something that you've
248
00:11:33,558 --> 00:11:36,486
done all your life that you really enjoy, that you would
249
00:11:36,510 --> 00:11:39,270
do without getting paid. And I was like, watch
250
00:11:39,342 --> 00:11:41,942
movies. I would. That's what I would do without being
251
00:11:41,998 --> 00:11:44,864
paid. She said, well, what can you do about watching movies? And
252
00:11:44,904 --> 00:11:47,856
I said, well, I could, I could write about them, I could talk about
253
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,826
them, you know, And Internet had come out by then, kids. yeah, the
254
00:11:50,850 --> 00:11:53,734
Internet had come out by this time. So I,
255
00:11:55,314 --> 00:11:57,850
Yeah, I think I started just kind of like posting
256
00:11:57,882 --> 00:12:00,804
about movies. And then, my girlfriend and
257
00:12:00,844 --> 00:12:03,684
I was sitting there like, you know, I gotta get a name. I can't just keep doing this at
258
00:12:03,724 --> 00:12:06,518
Sabrina and all that. And then we, were sitting around and I
259
00:12:06,542 --> 00:12:09,252
said, I'm a real cinephile. And then we were trying to think of
260
00:12:09,334 --> 00:12:12,168
names, you know, colors. I wanted something that people would know
261
00:12:12,192 --> 00:12:15,176
automatically that I was black when you heard the name. And so
262
00:12:15,216 --> 00:12:17,672
we said, we came up with Cinnamon File.
263
00:12:17,704 --> 00:12:19,976
And that was the
264
00:12:20,016 --> 00:12:22,424
birth of the Cinnamon Cinema.
265
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,432
So started with a Facebook page.
266
00:12:25,624 --> 00:12:28,152
Yeah, you know, then I just started
267
00:12:28,224 --> 00:12:31,118
like, you know, writing a blog and then I had
268
00:12:31,142 --> 00:12:33,956
my own podcast. And, and then
269
00:12:33,996 --> 00:12:36,852
I met, then Discovery came out and I met the rest of the sisters
270
00:12:36,884 --> 00:12:39,664
and we, you know, we just kind of went sci fi and I,
271
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,196
I kind of let the movie thing die,
272
00:12:42,676 --> 00:12:45,238
because it was a lot of work putting the Sci Fi sisters out there.
273
00:12:45,422 --> 00:12:46,006
>> Will: Yeah.
274
00:12:46,086 --> 00:12:48,514
>> Sabrina Wood: And, we were thinking about doing a YouTube channel.
275
00:12:48,610 --> 00:12:51,378
And, you know, I said to, the rest of the sisters, I said, well, you
276
00:12:51,402 --> 00:12:53,906
know, would you guys mind if I kind of like
277
00:12:53,946 --> 00:12:56,626
resurrected the cinnamon cinephile thing and brought it over
278
00:12:56,666 --> 00:12:59,586
to Sci Fi sisters? They were like,
279
00:12:59,706 --> 00:13:02,556
we were waiting for you to figure it out.
280
00:13:04,666 --> 00:13:07,650
so we just kind of, instead of making it classic, we switched it
281
00:13:07,658 --> 00:13:10,450
to sci fi and cut it to Simpson, and
282
00:13:10,538 --> 00:13:13,206
here I am. So that's what happened.
283
00:13:13,546 --> 00:13:15,986
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. So how so
284
00:13:16,106 --> 00:13:19,074
given, given that you're a huge film buff and we, when you were talking
285
00:13:19,090 --> 00:13:21,832
about that, I couldn't help but think, I know recently I, think I was
286
00:13:21,888 --> 00:13:24,616
sober. Denzel Washington was talking about some of the great
287
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,416
directors. And, you know, he has a theater background
288
00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:30,478
and he's really not much of a movie buff, you know,
289
00:13:30,566 --> 00:13:32,750
whenever he, with his career.
290
00:13:32,942 --> 00:13:35,774
And but now he's like, I think
291
00:13:35,814 --> 00:13:38,718
he's wanting to get more directing and stuff and he's, you know, he's starting to
292
00:13:38,726 --> 00:13:41,278
branch out into that. So thinking about you
293
00:13:41,366 --> 00:13:44,286
as a film fan and, you know, who are some of
294
00:13:44,310 --> 00:13:46,494
your favorite filmmakers as far as
295
00:13:46,534 --> 00:13:49,364
directors? I know, of course you, you
296
00:13:49,404 --> 00:13:51,460
mentioned, you know, you're named after Sci.
297
00:13:51,492 --> 00:13:52,704
>> Sabrina Wood: Fi or in general?
298
00:13:53,164 --> 00:13:55,674
>> Will: Just, both in general and in sci fi.
299
00:13:56,014 --> 00:13:58,934
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, okay. Well, the first
300
00:13:58,974 --> 00:14:01,926
director that always comes up, it's William Wyler. I
301
00:14:01,950 --> 00:14:04,518
know people are going to say, who but
302
00:14:04,686 --> 00:14:07,574
William Wyler? I, I, When I was in college,
303
00:14:07,654 --> 00:14:10,406
the very first film class I ever took, we had a
304
00:14:10,430 --> 00:14:13,350
professor named Ken Happy. And I went to the College of the Holy
305
00:14:13,382 --> 00:14:16,246
Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts. Yay, Saders.
306
00:14:16,390 --> 00:14:19,158
And he had a class on
307
00:14:19,246 --> 00:14:22,216
William Wyler. And, you know, he
308
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,096
made the Little Foxes with Bette Davis. He made the Best Years of
309
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,864
Our Lives with Scene N Andrews, all these great films. And
310
00:14:27,904 --> 00:14:30,616
William, oh my God, I was in there. He made the
311
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,024
Heiress with,
312
00:14:33,944 --> 00:14:35,364
Montgomery Cliff.
313
00:14:36,824 --> 00:14:39,696
I went into this class because, you know, it
314
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,608
wasn't even for credit, if I'm not mistaken. No, it was no credit. It was
315
00:14:42,616 --> 00:14:45,616
like a three hour on Wednesday night at school, like
316
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,486
we're gonna do, we were in there and we, we were in
317
00:14:48,510 --> 00:14:51,428
a little film, you know, like a studio, and they
318
00:14:51,436 --> 00:14:54,304
would, he would show the movie and Talk about it. And I just
319
00:14:54,684 --> 00:14:57,588
lost my mind. So William Wyler would probably
320
00:14:57,636 --> 00:15:00,556
be, my top number one. And after that
321
00:15:00,580 --> 00:15:03,568
is Alfred Hitchcock for sure. you
322
00:15:03,576 --> 00:15:06,416
know, Rebecca and all that stuff. But of the
323
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:09,008
new ones, I really like Christopher Nolan.
324
00:15:09,136 --> 00:15:11,744
If, if Christopher Nolan has made the movie, I'm
325
00:15:11,824 --> 00:15:14,802
going to see it. That's. I don't care
326
00:15:14,858 --> 00:15:17,234
how complicated it gets or how
327
00:15:17,274 --> 00:15:19,954
disbelief it is. I mean, I'm, I'm there for
328
00:15:19,994 --> 00:15:22,946
him. That's. That's it. So I, I love that.
329
00:15:22,970 --> 00:15:25,916
I love that guy. But, yeah, so those are my, those are my big
330
00:15:25,940 --> 00:15:27,144
three right there.
331
00:15:27,444 --> 00:15:28,268
>> Will: Cool. Cool.
332
00:15:28,316 --> 00:15:31,132
>> Sabrina Wood: I. You know, I just saw the, the six six,
333
00:15:31,188 --> 00:15:33,868
Triple eight with Tyler Perry. I so want to like him, but
334
00:15:33,956 --> 00:15:34,508
Good lord.
335
00:15:34,556 --> 00:15:35,184
>> Will: Yeah.
336
00:15:35,524 --> 00:15:37,228
>> Sabrina Wood: That movie was okay. That's okay.
337
00:15:37,276 --> 00:15:37,500
>> Will: Yeah.
338
00:15:37,532 --> 00:15:40,230
>> Sabrina Wood: Trying to think of somebody else, but yeah.
339
00:15:40,342 --> 00:15:40,806
Oh, well.
340
00:15:40,830 --> 00:15:41,462
>> Will: Yeah.
341
00:15:41,638 --> 00:15:44,234
>> Sabrina Wood: Now wait a minute. Let's go back. Jordan Peele.
342
00:15:45,214 --> 00:15:46,074
>> Will: Yeah.
343
00:15:47,214 --> 00:15:47,254
>> Sabrina Wood: Nope.
344
00:15:48,614 --> 00:15:51,326
>> Will: I did too. I did too. That was such an under
345
00:15:51,430 --> 00:15:52,954
appreciated film.
346
00:15:53,584 --> 00:15:55,848
>> Sabrina Wood: M. People just didn't get it.
347
00:15:56,016 --> 00:15:58,760
>> Will: I don't think so. Yeah, yeah, I, Yeah,
348
00:15:58,792 --> 00:16:01,496
because I saw the trailer and I was just like, okay, this is,
349
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,456
this. I could, I think this is going to be something that I
350
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,400
can, I can really get, get into. And then
351
00:16:07,552 --> 00:16:10,482
when, when I, when I was sitting there in the theater watching it and
352
00:16:10,538 --> 00:16:13,364
just, it just, just pulled me in. and,
353
00:16:13,984 --> 00:16:16,664
and, and, and, and you're right. I think
354
00:16:16,704 --> 00:16:19,608
folks just did not get it. And I know he says, you know,
355
00:16:19,616 --> 00:16:22,244
he's still trying to like, you know, he's such,
356
00:16:23,024 --> 00:16:25,976
you know, his filmography is such that people are still trying
357
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,984
to, you know, get. For him to like, can he,
358
00:16:29,024 --> 00:16:31,908
can he replicate, blanking, on the
359
00:16:31,916 --> 00:16:32,324
title now?
360
00:16:32,364 --> 00:16:34,710
>> Sabrina Wood: But, yeah, Get Out.
361
00:16:34,782 --> 00:16:35,414
>> Will: Exactly.
362
00:16:35,494 --> 00:16:38,278
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, yeah, they're waiting for get out too.
363
00:16:38,446 --> 00:16:41,384
>> Will: Yeah, they're waiting for get out too. But yeah, but, but
364
00:16:41,424 --> 00:16:44,136
yeah, you know, but I just, I take each one of his
365
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,128
projects now on his own merit and I think, no, even though
366
00:16:47,136 --> 00:16:50,104
it's no get out, but it's definitely one that I was just like.
367
00:16:50,224 --> 00:16:53,096
Yeah, I, I really enjoyed it. It was definitely one of my
368
00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,798
top films of that year. for sure.
369
00:16:54,886 --> 00:16:57,456
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, yeah. well, you know. Yeah, it's
370
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,508
like films are so expensive nowadays,
371
00:17:00,556 --> 00:17:03,532
you know, like Ryan Coogler even too, when you think about it.
372
00:17:03,668 --> 00:17:06,348
Ryan, who is an absolutely amazing director
373
00:17:06,436 --> 00:17:09,194
also. they only have like, they have less than a half
374
00:17:09,234 --> 00:17:12,122
dozen films under their belt. I mean, one of his films is
375
00:17:12,178 --> 00:17:15,114
Black Panther, but he's got what, like six, seven
376
00:17:15,154 --> 00:17:18,074
films? This is so expensive. They Take so much
377
00:17:18,114 --> 00:17:21,082
time. It's not like back in the old days that. That I Like
378
00:17:21,138 --> 00:17:24,032
in the, you know, the 40s and 50s, where you were pumping
379
00:17:24,048 --> 00:17:26,992
them out, you could make three films in a year, you know, and.
380
00:17:27,048 --> 00:17:30,032
And you had time to experiment. You had time to do a different
381
00:17:30,088 --> 00:17:33,054
genre. You had time to. Well, let me try it. Let me
382
00:17:33,054 --> 00:17:35,968
m. Try a film noir. Let me try a comedy. Let me try a
383
00:17:35,976 --> 00:17:38,880
love story. But you don't have that. You don't
384
00:17:38,912 --> 00:17:39,884
have that,
385
00:17:41,984 --> 00:17:44,904
luck anymore. What am I. What's the word I'm looking for? You don't have that. That
386
00:17:44,944 --> 00:17:47,864
opportunity anymore. It's like, yeah, people want. People want to know,
387
00:17:47,904 --> 00:17:50,796
what kind of director are you? What kind of film do you make? And
388
00:17:50,820 --> 00:17:53,708
if you make two that are similar, well, you just better keep going, you
389
00:17:53,716 --> 00:17:56,604
know. And if you make something that's off and out of the box, they're like,
390
00:17:56,644 --> 00:17:59,628
whoa, wait a minute. That's not what I was like. I
391
00:17:59,636 --> 00:18:02,588
said, tyler Perry's got it down. He's gonna make the same damn movie over and over and
392
00:18:02,596 --> 00:18:03,212
over again.
393
00:18:03,348 --> 00:18:06,156
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah. He knows
394
00:18:06,220 --> 00:18:08,144
it's gonna. If you cash those checks,
395
00:18:08,884 --> 00:18:10,184
he's picking it out.
396
00:18:12,084 --> 00:18:15,036
>> Sabrina Wood: Just don't go to the movie. But, you know, my boy is. He's doing what
397
00:18:15,060 --> 00:18:17,856
he wants to do. But, you know, but I think
398
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:20,048
that's one of the sad things about
399
00:18:20,216 --> 00:18:22,624
filmmaking today. They don't have the luxury
400
00:18:22,704 --> 00:18:25,456
of finding out what kind of director they
401
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:28,096
are and all the different genres. Like, you know, you used
402
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:31,088
to, you know, if you were at a studio back in the day and they
403
00:18:31,096 --> 00:18:33,984
were just giving you assignments and you could just like, pump out
404
00:18:34,024 --> 00:18:37,008
films, you know, because. Yeah, you know, that's. That's what
405
00:18:37,016 --> 00:18:39,840
you. You're the B list guy. You're making this, you're making that,
406
00:18:39,912 --> 00:18:40,890
you know, but.
407
00:18:40,992 --> 00:18:43,974
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that. That's. That.
408
00:18:44,014 --> 00:18:46,790
That's so true. I mean, I think you. You know, people are more
409
00:18:46,862 --> 00:18:49,766
in the lane. I mean, I guess, you know,
410
00:18:49,790 --> 00:18:52,582
when you see, you know, I guess Nolan is sort of, you know, he.
411
00:18:52,638 --> 00:18:55,494
He's at that place now where he can. He can go
412
00:18:55,534 --> 00:18:58,474
whatever direction he wants to go into. So. But,
413
00:18:58,424 --> 00:19:01,264
But for many directors, yeah, I mean, they. They
414
00:19:01,304 --> 00:19:04,016
really are stuck into that place. And then, you
415
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,334
know, it's hard for them to. To. To
416
00:19:06,374 --> 00:19:09,302
jump if you're not artur. You know, then.
417
00:19:09,358 --> 00:19:12,354
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, it's hard for them to get the money to, you know, to.
418
00:19:12,654 --> 00:19:15,638
>> Will: Yeah, I mean, I guess that's why I think, you know, with, like,
419
00:19:15,726 --> 00:19:18,678
when you Think. When I think about that, like, a 24, I think, is one of
420
00:19:18,686 --> 00:19:20,534
the studios that does take chances.
421
00:19:20,614 --> 00:19:22,886
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, my God, I love them so much.
422
00:19:22,990 --> 00:19:25,888
>> Will: Yeah. you know, when you think about the Daniels, you
423
00:19:25,896 --> 00:19:28,862
know, to give. Be able to do, you know, everything
424
00:19:28,918 --> 00:19:31,838
everywhere and some of the other things, and there's some, you
425
00:19:31,846 --> 00:19:34,798
know, there's some hits, there's some misses, but at least they. They're willing to take chances.
426
00:19:34,846 --> 00:19:35,294
>> Sabrina Wood: On.
427
00:19:35,414 --> 00:19:35,838
>> Will: On.
428
00:19:35,926 --> 00:19:38,822
>> Sabrina Wood: They did the, What was the one with, Oh, my God, I'm
429
00:19:38,838 --> 00:19:41,606
blanking. the Black Panther movie that they did
430
00:19:41,630 --> 00:19:44,486
about m. The brother that was
431
00:19:44,510 --> 00:19:47,046
shot and killed. That one. That was
432
00:19:47,070 --> 00:19:48,034
824.
433
00:19:48,654 --> 00:19:51,350
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah,
434
00:19:51,382 --> 00:19:52,470
yeah, yeah.
435
00:19:52,502 --> 00:19:55,452
>> Sabrina Wood: It was like, okay. They can turn on a
436
00:19:55,460 --> 00:19:58,376
dime and make things and, you know, okay, I'm
437
00:19:58,392 --> 00:20:01,320
gonna let you go look up this movie because it was an A24 and it was
438
00:20:01,344 --> 00:20:04,288
the craziest movie I ever saw. It was hilarious. Nobody else
439
00:20:04,408 --> 00:20:07,392
will see this movie except my movie Chingu. Girl, if
440
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,128
you're out there listening and you know who you are, the
441
00:20:10,168 --> 00:20:12,228
movie was called Lamb,
442
00:20:13,288 --> 00:20:15,760
and I'm writing it down all I'm gonna say,
443
00:20:15,944 --> 00:20:18,784
lamb, a 24. Watch it.
444
00:20:18,856 --> 00:20:20,508
Give me a call when you've seen it.
445
00:20:21,048 --> 00:20:23,952
>> Will: I will do so. I will do so. I will, I will watch it
446
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,648
and I will message you guys and, maybe we'll. Maybe we can do a,
447
00:20:26,648 --> 00:20:29,568
I'll mention to my podcast partner too, and we can see what we can do about
448
00:20:29,608 --> 00:20:32,530
maybe doing a. Maybe. Maybe we can be
449
00:20:32,554 --> 00:20:33,778
like, sabrina, what.
450
00:20:33,818 --> 00:20:36,786
>> Sabrina Wood: Did you tell me to watch? I mean, I, I have friends that used
451
00:20:36,842 --> 00:20:39,778
to watch it. After I, I told what it was about, they were like, oh, no,
452
00:20:39,818 --> 00:20:42,418
we're not watching that. I was like, oh, no, you got to see this. This movie is
453
00:20:42,458 --> 00:20:43,158
crazy.
454
00:20:44,968 --> 00:20:47,858
>> Will: speaking of movies and stuff and, and talking about genres, so
455
00:20:47,898 --> 00:20:50,498
what, you know what, as far as film
456
00:20:50,538 --> 00:20:53,218
critique and sci fi exploration,
457
00:20:53,378 --> 00:20:55,970
you know, because I, you know, looking at some of the titles you've had on your
458
00:20:55,994 --> 00:20:58,890
podcast, you, know, there's it, you know,
459
00:20:58,898 --> 00:21:01,800
you've had everything from Akira to, to
460
00:21:01,888 --> 00:21:04,728
just recently, Blade Runner with David Living, you know, talking about
461
00:21:04,752 --> 00:21:07,538
David Livingston about that. So what, what, how do
462
00:21:07,562 --> 00:21:10,338
you develop that unique blend of the
463
00:21:10,362 --> 00:21:12,386
two as far as just like doing a critique?
464
00:21:12,466 --> 00:21:13,766
>> Sabrina Wood: Well, it's a combination.
465
00:21:14,986 --> 00:21:17,970
Combination of my favorite movie that I loved when
466
00:21:17,978 --> 00:21:20,946
I was growing up. Usually then the guests will.
467
00:21:20,986 --> 00:21:23,948
Sometimes, you know, when I ask certain people to come on, like for
468
00:21:23,972 --> 00:21:26,754
example, David, Livingston, he.
469
00:21:26,810 --> 00:21:29,682
He was like, I. I want to do Blade Runner. I Was like, well,
470
00:21:29,754 --> 00:21:32,290
of course, Mr. Livingston, whatever you want to
471
00:21:32,298 --> 00:21:35,270
do. same thing with Brandon Schultz, who's from the writers room
472
00:21:35,310 --> 00:21:37,686
of Discovery. He wanted to do Children of Men.
473
00:21:37,838 --> 00:21:40,806
And I'm like, yeah, great. Okay. It wasn't
474
00:21:40,838 --> 00:21:43,732
on my list, but, those are great films. So we, we did
475
00:21:43,756 --> 00:21:46,756
what they wanted to do. So that's probably why I get a weird mix.
476
00:21:46,788 --> 00:21:49,400
Godzilla was mine. Akira was mine.
477
00:21:51,470 --> 00:21:54,370
I, I just love those two movies. And
478
00:21:54,750 --> 00:21:56,454
I, wanted people to
479
00:21:57,234 --> 00:22:00,154
see classic sci fi in my first
480
00:22:00,194 --> 00:22:03,114
season. The stuff that, you know.
481
00:22:03,154 --> 00:22:06,154
Let's go back. You want to talk about a story aging
482
00:22:06,234 --> 00:22:09,144
well? I mean, these movies, like,
483
00:22:09,094 --> 00:22:11,966
them. Like the first giant bug movie
484
00:22:12,014 --> 00:22:14,718
ever made. Yeah, let's do it. Giant
485
00:22:14,750 --> 00:22:16,962
ants in the desert. Yeah.
486
00:22:17,472 --> 00:22:20,314
So, and I think what
487
00:22:20,338 --> 00:22:23,226
I love about these films is that they usually just have, like, one plot.
488
00:22:23,274 --> 00:22:26,250
It's like a giant ant in the desert. We got to kill it or it's going to kill us.
489
00:22:26,306 --> 00:22:29,258
That's it. You know, we're not on any multiple plot.
490
00:22:29,370 --> 00:22:32,302
There's nothing you got to figure out. It's just kill the ants.
491
00:22:34,322 --> 00:22:37,060
I love it. And, and. But they were great stories, and
492
00:22:37,116 --> 00:22:40,086
we did that one with, David Gerald, who wrote
493
00:22:40,134 --> 00:22:42,576
the Trouble with Tribbles, and.
494
00:22:42,774 --> 00:22:45,644
Yeah, and David just broke it down for us. I mean,
495
00:22:45,668 --> 00:22:48,632
he just was into that movie. So, I just
496
00:22:48,672 --> 00:22:51,080
love talking to people that are really knowledgeable about
497
00:22:51,136 --> 00:22:53,480
either screenplays or writing or
498
00:22:53,536 --> 00:22:56,008
directing and getting that
499
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,112
background. I mean, you know, it's fun to talk with your friends about
500
00:22:59,152 --> 00:23:01,944
a movie, but when you talk to somebody who
501
00:23:02,048 --> 00:23:04,776
makes them and has written them, it's.
502
00:23:04,824 --> 00:23:07,492
It's really interesting to see what they see.
503
00:23:08,692 --> 00:23:11,564
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah, that was gonna be my next question. It was like, what, you know,
504
00:23:11,588 --> 00:23:14,154
what, what criteria. You answered it. as far as the
505
00:23:14,178 --> 00:23:17,072
criteria used for your, your guest, have you had
506
00:23:17,112 --> 00:23:19,728
it to that point? Have you had any
507
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,688
discussions with your guests that has changed
508
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,172
your perspective on a film?
509
00:23:25,192 --> 00:23:27,568
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah. Blade Runner, which is not one of my favorite
510
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,578
films. it had not been until it was picked.
511
00:23:30,610 --> 00:23:33,374
You know, it was, it was not on my list. And I don't, I, I,
512
00:23:33,498 --> 00:23:36,342
I've seen it, you know, and I was like, okay,
513
00:23:36,502 --> 00:23:39,446
but doing my own research on it.
514
00:23:39,454 --> 00:23:42,214
And then even. And when we were talking, I was talking to
515
00:23:42,238 --> 00:23:45,174
David, it was, I said something, and like, I said, well, did you think he
516
00:23:45,198 --> 00:23:48,102
really was. Because I was still figuring out things while
517
00:23:48,142 --> 00:23:50,952
when I was talking to him. So, you know, that
518
00:23:50,992 --> 00:23:52,892
movie was fairly.
519
00:23:54,032 --> 00:23:57,000
That was a, that was a good one. I really enjoyed that because
520
00:23:57,136 --> 00:24:00,002
I wasn't playing. That was, I was learning all these new things about
521
00:24:00,042 --> 00:24:02,542
that film, and it was. I was really impressed with that film.
522
00:24:03,082 --> 00:24:03,506
>> Will: Yeah.
523
00:24:03,554 --> 00:24:06,482
>> Sabrina Wood: You know, like, still, if I knew. But I, I Even
524
00:24:06,522 --> 00:24:09,362
Godzilla, I always liked that
525
00:24:09,402 --> 00:24:12,370
film, but I did not know the deep history of it and
526
00:24:12,426 --> 00:24:15,090
a lot of the meaning behind it and
527
00:24:15,146 --> 00:24:18,002
what went into the making of that film. So when we
528
00:24:18,042 --> 00:24:21,028
did that particular interview with, my friend Kay
529
00:24:21,060 --> 00:24:24,040
Leah, a lot of people
530
00:24:24,096 --> 00:24:26,872
said, you know, I. I have seen this movie, but I
531
00:24:26,912 --> 00:24:29,722
never knew it was all this. I said, yeah, it's a,
532
00:24:29,690 --> 00:24:32,466
incredibly important film, so it
533
00:24:32,506 --> 00:24:35,026
needs to be known. So I love that. I love
534
00:24:35,066 --> 00:24:37,218
discovering that about a movie. The.
535
00:24:37,322 --> 00:24:37,746
>> Will: Yeah.
536
00:24:37,826 --> 00:24:39,086
>> Sabrina Wood: What it really means.
537
00:24:39,706 --> 00:24:42,674
>> Will: Yeah, that's a good point about both. Godzilla
538
00:24:42,690 --> 00:24:45,670
in particular, because, you know, it was really not, you know,
539
00:24:45,742 --> 00:24:48,438
and I guess that's one of the great things about sci fi as a
540
00:24:48,446 --> 00:24:51,146
genre because it can be an allegory for.
541
00:24:51,250 --> 00:24:54,106
For many things. And of course, you know, that, you know,
542
00:24:54,130 --> 00:24:56,890
Godzilla really was, you know, part of Born
543
00:24:56,922 --> 00:24:59,094
in the Nuclear Age is really,
544
00:24:59,664 --> 00:25:02,404
you know, starting to come on and.
545
00:25:03,024 --> 00:25:05,894
Because I. When I first time I saw Gojira.
546
00:25:05,894 --> 00:25:08,856
Ah, I guess if you want to go, you know, to use the original, term, you know,
547
00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:10,644
original title for it. I.
548
00:25:11,664 --> 00:25:14,598
For many years, like, I had the same kind of thing. I
549
00:25:14,606 --> 00:25:17,318
was just like, oh, yeah, big monster, you know, you know, big Kaiju.
550
00:25:17,366 --> 00:25:20,234
Okay, cool. But ye.
551
00:25:20,294 --> 00:25:23,170
Like, yeah, but then. Yeah, but then,
552
00:25:23,242 --> 00:25:26,136
you know, but several, years ago, I was
553
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,048
watching. We were. I was watching with my wife, and we were like. That was one
554
00:25:29,056 --> 00:25:31,976
of the, you know, we. We really got into the history of, like, what the. What
555
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,776
the meaning of that. That movie was with the. The
556
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,794
original. And, Yeah, and when you. When. When you
557
00:25:37,818 --> 00:25:39,862
see it in that vein,
558
00:25:40,702 --> 00:25:43,302
you know, it definitely takes it to a whole another
559
00:25:43,342 --> 00:25:43,974
level.
560
00:25:44,158 --> 00:25:44,966
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah. Yeah.
561
00:25:45,014 --> 00:25:45,174
>> Will: What.
562
00:25:45,198 --> 00:25:48,086
>> Sabrina Wood: It all represented what the Japanese were trying to say. And, you
563
00:25:48,094 --> 00:25:50,722
know, and. And I think another reason why,
564
00:25:51,632 --> 00:25:54,328
of earlier decades is, you know,
565
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,336
every film is made from a particular
566
00:25:57,424 --> 00:26:00,392
person's point of view, the director or the producer
567
00:26:00,472 --> 00:26:02,932
or what they're going through
568
00:26:03,712 --> 00:26:06,648
right then and there, it always. It always
569
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,704
colors the filmmaking. You know, sometimes, you know, when you find out who
570
00:26:09,728 --> 00:26:12,424
a producer is or director, you may say, I don't even want to see
571
00:26:12,448 --> 00:26:15,000
that you know what's coming, or you think you know what's
572
00:26:15,016 --> 00:26:17,480
coming. But, you know, so knowing
573
00:26:17,850 --> 00:26:20,770
what was going on in the world that these people were
574
00:26:20,810 --> 00:26:23,362
living in when they made this movie
575
00:26:23,506 --> 00:26:25,870
is something I really love. To
576
00:26:26,650 --> 00:26:29,282
explore because it, it really,
577
00:26:29,466 --> 00:26:32,178
it really makes it different for you, you know,
578
00:26:32,234 --> 00:26:35,058
and sometimes you could forgive stuff that may be cringy now
579
00:26:35,114 --> 00:26:37,938
when you watch it or, you know, you
580
00:26:37,994 --> 00:26:40,962
understand things that maybe you just glossed right over. And
581
00:26:40,986 --> 00:26:43,698
you didn't get the fact that this
582
00:26:43,754 --> 00:26:46,480
meant something because, like we always say, like, I, I'm
583
00:26:46,570 --> 00:26:49,482
a film student, you know, with this
584
00:26:49,586 --> 00:26:52,090
film school for screenwriting. But one of the things
585
00:26:52,130 --> 00:26:55,082
that always said in clout, if it's not on
586
00:26:55,106 --> 00:26:57,898
the page, it's not on the screen. So
587
00:26:57,954 --> 00:27:00,810
if they write something in that script, it's there
588
00:27:00,850 --> 00:27:03,530
for a reason, or if you put it on the
589
00:27:03,570 --> 00:27:06,442
screen, it's there for a
590
00:27:06,466 --> 00:27:09,338
reason. So you, you know, when you're watching a movie,
591
00:27:09,514 --> 00:27:12,282
you really have to get it because, you know, if
592
00:27:12,306 --> 00:27:15,210
you've ever been on a crew,
593
00:27:15,370 --> 00:27:18,186
there's nothing that's an act that accidentally gets
594
00:27:18,218 --> 00:27:21,012
filmed. Maybe, but you know, you've got to set up the
595
00:27:21,036 --> 00:27:23,844
shot. You're putting with people in there. You're doing
596
00:27:23,932 --> 00:27:26,516
something at a particular time of day, at a particular
597
00:27:26,668 --> 00:27:29,508
frame speed, whatever. You know, when you say
598
00:27:29,564 --> 00:27:32,452
action, this is what you want them to see and there's a
599
00:27:32,476 --> 00:27:34,980
reason. So getting behind all
600
00:27:35,020 --> 00:27:37,258
that just fascinates me.
601
00:27:37,444 --> 00:27:40,366
>> Will: Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, I know you mentioned
602
00:27:40,398 --> 00:27:43,362
earlier, you know, it's a film critique, you know, as far as
603
00:27:43,386 --> 00:27:46,050
film analysis, what do you think makes a
604
00:27:46,090 --> 00:27:47,670
good sci fi
605
00:27:48,890 --> 00:27:51,570
film as far
606
00:27:51,610 --> 00:27:54,572
as, as far as storytelling, as far as the special effects? I mean,
607
00:27:54,596 --> 00:27:57,516
is it a combination of the two? I mean, what, whatever.
608
00:27:57,548 --> 00:27:59,980
You're looking at a sci fi movie and, and
609
00:28:00,100 --> 00:28:01,116
yeah, yeah.
610
00:28:01,148 --> 00:28:04,120
>> Sabrina Wood: And then, you know, it's gotta have, it's gotta have the story.
611
00:28:04,850 --> 00:28:07,722
That's the base, you know, that's the base. Like
612
00:28:07,746 --> 00:28:10,470
when, if I'm doing a review of a film,
613
00:28:11,010 --> 00:28:13,226
did I like this to. Did I
614
00:28:13,378 --> 00:28:16,218
give two shakes about whether
615
00:28:16,274 --> 00:28:19,210
these people did whatever they were trying to do? And it can be as
616
00:28:19,250 --> 00:28:22,122
ridiculous. You know, one of the things I like about sci fi is you
617
00:28:22,146 --> 00:28:24,874
can suspend belief. Like, it doesn't have to
618
00:28:24,962 --> 00:28:27,674
be scientifically possible. Like if it's implausible,
619
00:28:27,722 --> 00:28:30,348
like, that would never happen or you can't do that. I'm like,
620
00:28:30,474 --> 00:28:33,304
even better. This is the science fiction
621
00:28:33,352 --> 00:28:36,168
of it. Like, give me a premise and
622
00:28:36,304 --> 00:28:39,160
follow it. Follow it all the way through to the end. Like,
623
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,040
don't change facts now and don't bring in something
624
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,032
at the last minute that's going to change this whole thing. You told me
625
00:28:45,056 --> 00:28:47,992
that the world has two moons and it goes around this way. Or whatever you
626
00:28:48,016 --> 00:28:50,952
told me, that's what I'm thinking is going to happen all the way through this movie. So
627
00:28:50,976 --> 00:28:53,912
the science, as you tell me, has
628
00:28:53,936 --> 00:28:56,872
to be consistent. The story has to be good. I have to
629
00:28:56,896 --> 00:28:59,880
care about those actors or the scene, or I have to
630
00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:02,850
have some sense of urgency that. Yes, we gotta,
631
00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,760
Like this movie I'm watching right now, we gotta build these engines to move the
632
00:29:05,784 --> 00:29:08,624
Earth away from the sun that's going nova. I'm like, okay, that's
633
00:29:08,656 --> 00:29:11,072
a mission. All right, I'm on with this. Let's
634
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,856
go. So don't give me something
635
00:29:13,912 --> 00:29:16,752
where I can't understand, even though I'm a
636
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,588
Christopher Nolan freak, that I can't quite
637
00:29:20,088 --> 00:29:23,056
what's going on. If I'm. If I'm not
638
00:29:23,112 --> 00:29:25,968
following, like, why is he putting the
639
00:29:26,008 --> 00:29:28,986
serum in there? Like, I don't know. And I don't mean
640
00:29:29,042 --> 00:29:31,978
that. Ah, you know, you can have it as a thriller where I have.
641
00:29:32,018 --> 00:29:34,906
I'm putting clues together, that's one thing. But
642
00:29:34,962 --> 00:29:37,866
by the end of that movie, I better know what happened, you know, So
643
00:29:37,922 --> 00:29:40,634
I. I do like a satisfying ending. I really hate
644
00:29:40,666 --> 00:29:43,290
ambiguous endings. I just don't like
645
00:29:43,314 --> 00:29:43,878
them.
646
00:29:44,578 --> 00:29:46,278
>> Will: Yeah. And. Yeah, I mean.
647
00:29:46,898 --> 00:29:49,722
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, I just, you know, end the movie for me. Please. Please. Tell the
648
00:29:49,730 --> 00:29:50,678
entire story.
649
00:29:50,978 --> 00:29:53,354
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, I know some films
650
00:29:53,386 --> 00:29:56,304
sometimes depending on. I guess a lot of times it depends.
651
00:29:56,336 --> 00:29:58,896
For me, I guess it depends on the film because if
652
00:29:58,952 --> 00:30:01,840
it's. If there. If. If we
653
00:30:01,864 --> 00:30:04,738
have ambiguous endings, if.
654
00:30:04,858 --> 00:30:07,458
If. If the. If. If it was
655
00:30:07,498 --> 00:30:10,338
earned, then I can deal with it. But if
656
00:30:10,378 --> 00:30:13,250
it's. But if it's just sort of like you're doing it for the
657
00:30:13,274 --> 00:30:15,396
sake of doing it, then, I just.
658
00:30:15,532 --> 00:30:17,780
>> Sabrina Wood: Right, Exactly. Will.
659
00:30:17,884 --> 00:30:20,848
Exactly. Yeah. If you. What did you say? You
660
00:30:20,888 --> 00:30:23,840
gotta earn it. Yeah, I like that. I like. I'm Use that. I'm stealing that
661
00:30:23,864 --> 00:30:24,668
from you.
662
00:30:25,288 --> 00:30:28,074
>> Will: Feel free to do so. Yeah, I, have no product
663
00:30:28,146 --> 00:30:30,810
authorship in, in that. But, you know, it's funny you
664
00:30:30,834 --> 00:30:33,428
mentioned, we were talking about storytelling,
665
00:30:34,376 --> 00:30:37,272
and. And all. And I think, you know, that's one of the
666
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,988
things that on our podcast, we really. We.
667
00:30:40,608 --> 00:30:43,240
We just talked last night. We just talked about what
668
00:30:43,264 --> 00:30:45,992
if, M for Marvel Season three. And.
669
00:30:46,150 --> 00:30:49,124
And one of the things my. My podcast partner Sarah
670
00:30:49,156 --> 00:30:52,100
talked about was there was an episode in the first season
671
00:30:52,204 --> 00:30:55,156
that to this day, it just, you know,
672
00:30:55,212 --> 00:30:58,180
it resonates with her and it just stays with her. And I think
673
00:30:58,204 --> 00:31:00,948
that's another thing. And for me, that's. I'm that same Way
674
00:31:00,988 --> 00:31:03,860
too. Where, like, you know, look like,
675
00:31:03,884 --> 00:31:06,718
for example, putting together our top top,
676
00:31:06,668 --> 00:31:09,350
five shows of 20, 24, you know,
677
00:31:09,504 --> 00:31:12,410
what's some of the criteria? And for me, you know,
678
00:31:12,434 --> 00:31:15,402
we, you know, we. We were also just talking about we. At the end of the
679
00:31:15,410 --> 00:31:18,218
year, we were talking about doing prophecy, and one of the questions came up
680
00:31:18,258 --> 00:31:20,878
was, you know, you know, we finished.
681
00:31:21,298 --> 00:31:24,218
We did our list before doing prophecy ended.
682
00:31:24,378 --> 00:31:27,270
And the question came up, you know, did. Did
683
00:31:27,294 --> 00:31:30,214
that show change our list or whatever?
684
00:31:30,246 --> 00:31:33,030
And I'm like, well, well, no. I
685
00:31:33,054 --> 00:31:35,670
mean, and, and. And as we were
686
00:31:35,694 --> 00:31:38,678
discussing it, I was blanking on the character's name and I was
687
00:31:38,718 --> 00:31:40,698
just like, oh, you know,
688
00:31:42,278 --> 00:31:44,622
it is one of those things where if a show,
689
00:31:44,790 --> 00:31:47,790
whatever work of art, whether it's a book, whether it's a song,
690
00:31:47,854 --> 00:31:50,670
whatever, whatever it is, for me to make an
691
00:31:50,694 --> 00:31:53,246
impression, it's got to stick with me. Like, you know, I'm
692
00:31:53,262 --> 00:31:56,188
just. If, If it's one of those things that
693
00:31:56,228 --> 00:31:59,070
just. I'm, just driving down the road and one thing,
694
00:31:59,190 --> 00:32:01,290
you know, like,
695
00:32:01,670 --> 00:32:04,382
I'm. What will I really motivate a character? X. Do
696
00:32:04,406 --> 00:32:07,374
xyz, you know, you know, those. Those kind of
697
00:32:07,382 --> 00:32:10,260
things that just, you know, where a story just really
698
00:32:10,300 --> 00:32:13,252
stays with you. And also, to your point about storytelling
699
00:32:13,316 --> 00:32:16,042
is, it. You know,
700
00:32:16,226 --> 00:32:19,178
one of my biggest quibble is when
701
00:32:19,234 --> 00:32:21,870
screenwriters or writers rooms
702
00:32:22,610 --> 00:32:25,530
break their own. Break
703
00:32:25,570 --> 00:32:27,670
the rules of storytelling and
704
00:32:28,690 --> 00:32:31,672
not be consistent with what they're. You know, if you set
705
00:32:31,696 --> 00:32:34,460
up. If you set things up in your universe to be a certain way,
706
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:37,200
it should. It should remain a certain way.
707
00:32:37,620 --> 00:32:40,238
unless, you know, and if you do bring in something
708
00:32:40,294 --> 00:32:43,134
like, you know, fans, you know, fan
709
00:32:43,182 --> 00:32:45,410
service in bringing a character, for example,
710
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,380
if you're going to bring in a character,
711
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,100
make it, make it, make it, make it
712
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,688
a reason why. For the story.
713
00:32:55,744 --> 00:32:58,680
>> Sabrina Wood: Part of that story. Give him a part in that
714
00:32:58,720 --> 00:32:59,358
story.
715
00:32:59,544 --> 00:33:02,386
>> Will: Yeah, not just the show. Oh, yeah, we got, you know, xy,
716
00:33:02,418 --> 00:33:05,362
you know, you know. Oh, we got so and so show up just
717
00:33:05,386 --> 00:33:08,354
for the sake of showing up. No, but make it part of the story as
718
00:33:08,362 --> 00:33:11,122
far as making it moving forward. So those are some. That's some of the things that
719
00:33:11,226 --> 00:33:13,906
really get to me whenever I'm watching something and it's
720
00:33:13,938 --> 00:33:16,802
like, okay, you just had this
721
00:33:16,826 --> 00:33:19,298
person show up just. Just because it's a Member
722
00:33:19,354 --> 00:33:22,002
Berry versus, like, oh, this really advances the
723
00:33:22,026 --> 00:33:22,590
story.
724
00:33:23,610 --> 00:33:26,470
>> Sabrina Wood: Right? You could do a clip to advertise this
725
00:33:26,510 --> 00:33:29,030
thing, and that's the only time you see this guy is in that clip
726
00:33:29,110 --> 00:33:29,622
anyway.
727
00:33:29,686 --> 00:33:30,262
>> Will: Yeah.
728
00:33:30,406 --> 00:33:32,450
>> Sabrina Wood: I tell you, the one. The one,
729
00:33:33,250 --> 00:33:35,978
thing that came out last year that
730
00:33:36,114 --> 00:33:38,330
really got all the Sci Fi Sisters was
731
00:33:38,370 --> 00:33:39,390
supercell.
732
00:33:39,810 --> 00:33:42,634
>> Will: Oh, we. Yes, we really enjoy that one, too.
733
00:33:42,802 --> 00:33:45,098
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, my God. Now, that was some
734
00:33:45,154 --> 00:33:46,190
storytelling.
735
00:33:46,610 --> 00:33:49,242
>> Will: Yeah, that actually made my top five list of the
736
00:33:49,266 --> 00:33:49,830
year.
737
00:33:50,940 --> 00:33:53,812
>> Sabrina Wood: Definitely, definitely. And I'm waiting. And, like, why did
738
00:33:53,836 --> 00:33:55,972
we only get. What was this, eight episodes?
739
00:33:56,116 --> 00:33:58,160
>> Will: Something like that. Yeah. Yeah, it was
740
00:33:58,860 --> 00:33:59,980
ended on a cliffhanger.
741
00:33:59,980 --> 00:34:02,714
>> Sabrina Wood: do we know we're getting second season? Like, what are you doing to us?
742
00:34:02,802 --> 00:34:03,700
I need to know.
743
00:34:03,700 --> 00:34:06,602
>> Will: M. Yeah, Netflix did renew it. I was so
744
00:34:06,626 --> 00:34:09,592
happy to see that. while we were covering it, did see
745
00:34:09,616 --> 00:34:12,600
that Netflix renewed it because I was like, man, there's a lot
746
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,540
more story in that show. that was definitely.
747
00:34:15,620 --> 00:34:15,924
>> Sabrina Wood: Yes.
748
00:34:15,972 --> 00:34:18,970
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah, that was definitely a diamond that,
749
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,808
you know, more people needed to talk about because that was just.
750
00:34:21,864 --> 00:34:24,380
I. That I really enjoyed that show.
751
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,632
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, I gave. We gave Rap man all the
752
00:34:27,656 --> 00:34:30,250
props because, you know, they had, what, six
753
00:34:30,290 --> 00:34:32,906
characters that. And they really
754
00:34:32,978 --> 00:34:35,962
told each character's story so that at the
755
00:34:35,986 --> 00:34:38,670
end, when they all became, like, the crew,
756
00:34:39,010 --> 00:34:41,786
you were like, oh, yeah, here we go.
757
00:34:41,858 --> 00:34:43,002
You know, so.
758
00:34:43,106 --> 00:34:44,496
>> Will: Yep, for sure.
759
00:34:44,618 --> 00:34:47,300
>> Sabrina Wood: And even. Even, you know, the. The
760
00:34:47,340 --> 00:34:50,260
plot, like, what are you. What are you up against? And, you know, we were
761
00:34:50,300 --> 00:34:52,772
just. We were. Yeah, this is urgent. Yeah, we got to do
762
00:34:52,796 --> 00:34:55,684
something. It was. It was phenomenal mixing
763
00:34:55,732 --> 00:34:58,500
in things that are happening today. Mixing in, you know,
764
00:34:58,540 --> 00:35:01,492
a. A story about medical,
765
00:35:01,676 --> 00:35:04,660
you know, inconsistencies or how black people are treated with
766
00:35:04,700 --> 00:35:07,670
certain diseases. so it was just.
767
00:35:07,710 --> 00:35:10,582
It was just phenomenal. I thought it was. And the music was
768
00:35:10,606 --> 00:35:12,262
great, too, man. I wanted that sound.
769
00:35:12,326 --> 00:35:15,166
>> Will: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, I'm glad
770
00:35:15,198 --> 00:35:18,174
you brought that up, because that was one of the things I did want to talk to you
771
00:35:18,182 --> 00:35:21,070
about. It's. As far as science fiction being a place
772
00:35:21,110 --> 00:35:23,838
for social commentary. And Sip of Cell is definitely
773
00:35:24,014 --> 00:35:26,720
one of those shows that, to me,
774
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,776
you know, you know, really bring up. People hear about Sickle
775
00:35:29,808 --> 00:35:32,720
Cell, but no, you know, but to take that
776
00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,344
particular genetic or
777
00:35:35,432 --> 00:35:38,368
Twitter and build a story around it,
778
00:35:38,424 --> 00:35:41,410
and. And I just like the way
779
00:35:41,450 --> 00:35:43,954
that they, you know, how these people's
780
00:35:44,082 --> 00:35:47,074
powers came, you know, came. Ah, there are
781
00:35:47,082 --> 00:35:49,762
little mini origin stories for all those folks. You
782
00:35:49,786 --> 00:35:52,754
know, how do you see the genre handling current?
783
00:35:52,842 --> 00:35:55,570
You know, Supacell is one thing, but just
784
00:35:55,690 --> 00:35:58,338
bigger, more, maybe globally, especially given
785
00:35:58,394 --> 00:36:01,362
that, you know, you guys do a lot of reviews and commentary on
786
00:36:01,386 --> 00:36:03,950
a lot of different things on your show,
787
00:36:04,660 --> 00:36:07,036
your own show, but also on the Sci Fi
788
00:36:07,068 --> 00:36:09,642
Sisters. How do you feel as far
789
00:36:09,666 --> 00:36:12,426
as the genre as a whole is
790
00:36:12,498 --> 00:36:15,402
treating current real world issues? I mean there's just so many things like
791
00:36:15,426 --> 00:36:17,786
climate change, there's you know, technology with
792
00:36:17,858 --> 00:36:20,782
A.I. you know, I think about that with like
793
00:36:20,806 --> 00:36:23,450
Mission Impossible, yeah, last, last
794
00:36:23,490 --> 00:36:25,798
summer, you know, social
795
00:36:25,854 --> 00:36:28,582
inequality. How do you think the genre is doing as far
796
00:36:28,606 --> 00:36:31,478
as, you know, bringing a, well, continue
797
00:36:31,534 --> 00:36:34,340
with that historical allegory. Yeah,
798
00:36:35,210 --> 00:36:37,390
>> Sabrina Wood: I, I think sci fi is
799
00:36:37,770 --> 00:36:40,712
probably the only genre that's doing anything but you
800
00:36:40,736 --> 00:36:43,480
know, everybody else is just slashing and burning. It's just
801
00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,992
crazy. I, I, I find, you
802
00:36:46,016 --> 00:36:48,824
know, three body problem, things like that. You
803
00:36:48,832 --> 00:36:51,640
know, movies coming in from China, movies coming in from
804
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:54,536
Korea, movies coming in from, you know, Great Britain. Even,
805
00:36:54,608 --> 00:36:57,414
even we just had a Rwandan film called Neptune's
806
00:36:57,462 --> 00:37:00,212
Frost and just a, this is
807
00:37:00,236 --> 00:37:02,884
a, a musical. Sci fi Afro.
808
00:37:02,932 --> 00:37:05,924
Futuristic musical science fiction. Yes. I have not seen it
809
00:37:05,932 --> 00:37:08,756
yet. Will, who I'm writing it down to, someone suggested
810
00:37:08,788 --> 00:37:11,204
this movie to me, Neptune's
811
00:37:11,332 --> 00:37:14,036
Frost, from Rwanda.
812
00:37:14,068 --> 00:37:16,724
And it's like nothing. I'm hearing that it's like nothing.
813
00:37:16,852 --> 00:37:19,810
It's got so many, so many film
814
00:37:20,034 --> 00:37:22,698
festivals, they've given this thing awards. It's crazy.
815
00:37:22,794 --> 00:37:25,772
So I I just, it's hard to find it
816
00:37:25,796 --> 00:37:28,684
though. I, I have to get a copy of it somehow. I'll let you
817
00:37:28,692 --> 00:37:30,456
know where it' yeah.
818
00:37:30,568 --> 00:37:32,008
>> Will: Yeah, but please let me know.
819
00:37:32,064 --> 00:37:34,952
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, but yeah, I think sci fi is saying a lot and
820
00:37:34,976 --> 00:37:37,752
it always has been the genre that has that said a lot. You
821
00:37:37,776 --> 00:37:40,338
know, even, even with you know, same sex
822
00:37:40,394 --> 00:37:43,090
romances or climate change, I mean, you know,
823
00:37:43,130 --> 00:37:46,082
social issues, you
824
00:37:46,106 --> 00:37:48,818
know, natural issue, natural disaster
825
00:37:48,914 --> 00:37:51,490
issues. what was the one I just saw? And it was
826
00:37:52,970 --> 00:37:55,748
talking about the person
827
00:37:55,804 --> 00:37:58,752
couldn't hear. I don't know. But you know a
828
00:37:58,776 --> 00:38:01,696
lot of different stories and the, and like,
829
00:38:01,768 --> 00:38:04,540
like this one supercell with a disease where
830
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,568
people had not heard of it and now this was like really
831
00:38:07,624 --> 00:38:10,544
educating a lot of people about what sickle cell was like. A lot. I
832
00:38:10,552 --> 00:38:13,440
think a lot of people thought it was like polio, that it had been eradicated.
833
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:16,528
I'm black. And I even thought oh, sickle cell
834
00:38:16,544 --> 00:38:19,520
isn't that big a deal anymore. But yes it is. It's still out there.
835
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,410
It just, it doesn't get any attention because it's all
836
00:38:22,450 --> 00:38:25,000
black people. But yeah, I think science fiction is
837
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,224
really at the, at the
838
00:38:27,392 --> 00:38:29,940
forefront of telling stories and
839
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,176
they, you know, they've been ringing the bell on climate change
840
00:38:33,248 --> 00:38:36,140
forever. We're sitting here right now watching these Palisade,
841
00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,296
fires out in California and I just can't
842
00:38:39,408 --> 00:38:42,352
but think that, you know, the fact
843
00:38:42,376 --> 00:38:45,312
that it is so dry, the fact that the winds are up to 90 miles an
844
00:38:45,336 --> 00:38:48,048
hour, the fact that, you know, the complete streets are burned, it's
845
00:38:48,064 --> 00:38:50,960
like, okay, how many times do we have
846
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,632
to see all these crazy weather
847
00:38:53,696 --> 00:38:56,576
effects? I mean, D.C. is sitting under like 8 inches of snow.
848
00:38:56,608 --> 00:38:59,504
We haven't had this much snow and I don't know how long, but you know, all of a
849
00:38:59,512 --> 00:39:02,464
sudden we just get this like, okay, what is going on? We
850
00:39:02,472 --> 00:39:05,406
don't get snow like this. But, the,
851
00:39:05,478 --> 00:39:08,350
the science fiction is definitely doing
852
00:39:08,390 --> 00:39:11,198
it and I, and I think even when
853
00:39:11,254 --> 00:39:14,142
it's a superhero movie, which I put in
854
00:39:14,166 --> 00:39:17,102
a, you know, that's a sub genre of sci fi
855
00:39:17,166 --> 00:39:19,984
for me. you know, and a superhero movie
856
00:39:20,032 --> 00:39:22,464
has ruled for the last few years in the box
857
00:39:22,512 --> 00:39:25,458
office. But you know, we're seeing a little lull
858
00:39:25,538 --> 00:39:28,498
right now. But you know, we got Superman out now
859
00:39:28,538 --> 00:39:31,090
though, so here we go. We've got, you know, Deadpool just came out.
860
00:39:31,114 --> 00:39:33,702
But, they still try to tell
861
00:39:33,790 --> 00:39:36,480
something more. Even the last, Black Panther
862
00:39:36,544 --> 00:39:39,520
story was trying to tell a different, you know, trying
863
00:39:39,544 --> 00:39:42,318
to tell something else about the earth and what's,
864
00:39:42,398 --> 00:39:45,184
what's, what's at stake. So, bravo. Sci
865
00:39:45,216 --> 00:39:48,208
fi, it's, it's always been at the forefront. It's just,
866
00:39:48,248 --> 00:39:51,120
I think this is pro. I think it's a golden age of
867
00:39:51,144 --> 00:39:54,048
sci fi. Like a lot of people looking
868
00:39:54,088 --> 00:39:57,056
at it that never did. I, you know, I don't
869
00:39:57,072 --> 00:39:59,760
think we could have really gotten this many podcasts and everything off the
870
00:39:59,784 --> 00:40:02,452
ground, talking about science fiction if it
871
00:40:02,460 --> 00:40:05,140
wasn't this particular time with Marvel and
872
00:40:05,164 --> 00:40:07,408
DC and, and Paramount and
873
00:40:07,828 --> 00:40:10,492
even Apple, all of them coming up with incredible
874
00:40:10,540 --> 00:40:11,248
ships.
875
00:40:11,748 --> 00:40:14,700
>> Will: Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Yeah. It really is. I think it is a really
876
00:40:14,724 --> 00:40:17,724
golden age for content. I know people use the word
877
00:40:17,756 --> 00:40:20,572
content, but it's a double edged sword.
878
00:40:20,620 --> 00:40:23,564
But that, that, that framing shows
879
00:40:23,596 --> 00:40:26,460
and movies and books and stuff like that way. But it
880
00:40:26,484 --> 00:40:29,224
really is. I, think we, we even
881
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,152
after, you know, granted we've made it through the strikes and
882
00:40:32,224 --> 00:40:35,110
Covid and everything else. But you know, I really feel like this
883
00:40:35,150 --> 00:40:37,644
year and, and beyond is going to be a
884
00:40:37,652 --> 00:40:40,630
good rebound m. That
885
00:40:41,820 --> 00:40:44,532
and will continue. you know, as far
886
00:40:44,556 --> 00:40:47,422
as getting good, getting good things out there for
887
00:40:47,446 --> 00:40:50,304
sure. speaking of podcast. Yeah, speaking of
888
00:40:50,312 --> 00:40:53,152
podcasts and stuff. So tell me about sort of the development as far
889
00:40:53,176 --> 00:40:55,460
as, you know, some of the behind the scenes
890
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,352
things that you do to prepare for your,
891
00:40:58,456 --> 00:41:01,298
for ah, your, your show. I know, obviously
892
00:41:01,314 --> 00:41:04,146
beyond watching the film, but I know you talked
893
00:41:04,178 --> 00:41:07,154
earlier about Blade Runner, for example, doing your own research. So what, what
894
00:41:07,162 --> 00:41:09,554
are some. How, what, what goes into the
895
00:41:09,642 --> 00:41:10,322
sausages.
896
00:41:10,466 --> 00:41:13,030
>> Sabrina Wood: I do is, is download the script.
897
00:41:13,530 --> 00:41:16,354
I usually try to find the shooting script of the film.
898
00:41:16,442 --> 00:41:19,252
That's, that's step one. And I like to read the
899
00:41:19,276 --> 00:41:21,956
script if I have not seen the movie before,
900
00:41:22,028 --> 00:41:24,750
which has never happened actually. But,
901
00:41:24,700 --> 00:41:27,550
no, actually the first One of the second season is
902
00:41:27,590 --> 00:41:30,472
called the Wandering Earth 2. And it is
903
00:41:30,496 --> 00:41:33,402
a, a Chinese dystopian, you
904
00:41:33,426 --> 00:41:36,266
know, blowing up everything sci fi.
905
00:41:36,298 --> 00:41:39,172
I have not seen this before. I will try
906
00:41:39,196 --> 00:41:42,196
to find this, the script and see. I like to see if there's
907
00:41:42,228 --> 00:41:44,980
a difference or change or, you know,
908
00:41:45,100 --> 00:41:47,908
what the screenwriter wrote versus what gets on the,
909
00:41:47,964 --> 00:41:50,938
what gets on the, the screen. And it's
910
00:41:50,954 --> 00:41:53,882
usually very eye opening when you compare the script to the
911
00:41:53,906 --> 00:41:56,612
screen because if it's a
912
00:41:56,636 --> 00:41:59,570
different writer, like, what did we do?
913
00:42:00,390 --> 00:42:03,166
we did the one where the Fantastic Voyage, written
914
00:42:03,198 --> 00:42:06,176
by, Jerome Bixby, who wrote a few Star Trek episodes.
915
00:42:06,208 --> 00:42:09,136
He did Mirror, Mirror. That's Jerome Bixby. And so he wrote
916
00:42:09,168 --> 00:42:11,680
Fantastic Voyage. And we were like reading, you know, his
917
00:42:11,720 --> 00:42:14,506
script, and it was based on someone else's idea,
918
00:42:14,538 --> 00:42:17,402
but we read that script and then you see the movie and
919
00:42:17,426 --> 00:42:20,282
you see the different changes and things and what, what, what made
920
00:42:20,306 --> 00:42:22,778
it into the film and what didn't, what got changed? Who got
921
00:42:22,834 --> 00:42:25,802
combined, you know, characters together. And it's really
922
00:42:25,826 --> 00:42:28,602
fascinating to me, like, why, you know, for cost? For this or for
923
00:42:28,626 --> 00:42:31,580
that? so that's the first thing. I usually read the script. I usually watch
924
00:42:31,620 --> 00:42:34,460
the movie. A couple of times I watch the movie, just watch
925
00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:37,372
it through, just let me, just let it
926
00:42:37,396 --> 00:42:40,156
wash over me. And then I'll watch it again with
927
00:42:40,228 --> 00:42:42,240
pen in hand and I'm making notes.
928
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,248
then I do research. Then I do research
929
00:42:46,304 --> 00:42:49,272
on the film. I try to find articles about it. You know, I
930
00:42:49,296 --> 00:42:52,232
go into IMDb, I, I read, you know, trivia about
931
00:42:52,256 --> 00:42:55,038
it. I, and I look up the stars, I look up the
932
00:42:55,094 --> 00:42:57,854
directors, I look up everybody. You know, it's just
933
00:42:57,942 --> 00:43:00,654
a whole big thing. And I, and I love every
934
00:43:00,742 --> 00:43:03,742
second of it. People would
935
00:43:03,766 --> 00:43:06,446
think, oh, my God, that's a lot of work. I'm like, I
936
00:43:06,518 --> 00:43:09,150
can't get enough of it. I love doing deep
937
00:43:09,230 --> 00:43:11,950
research on films. I just love
938
00:43:11,990 --> 00:43:12,570
it.
939
00:43:12,870 --> 00:43:15,550
>> Will: That's awesome. That's awesome too. What's been the
940
00:43:15,590 --> 00:43:18,010
audience feedback, for, for you,
941
00:43:18,330 --> 00:43:21,288
on the show, as far as, you know, comments and
942
00:43:21,344 --> 00:43:23,976
just social media and other things, you know,
943
00:43:24,048 --> 00:43:26,498
what's, you know, listeners,
944
00:43:26,594 --> 00:43:29,042
watchers. What, what, what are people.
945
00:43:29,226 --> 00:43:31,910
>> Sabrina Wood: I think a lot. Yeah,
946
00:43:32,490 --> 00:43:35,442
yeah, they, they, they really appreciate, like,
947
00:43:35,466 --> 00:43:38,258
as we were saying earlier, they really appreciate the
948
00:43:38,314 --> 00:43:40,962
film more. A lot of people had, ah, already seen the
949
00:43:40,986 --> 00:43:43,728
film, like when we were talking about, Children
950
00:43:43,784 --> 00:43:46,474
of Men. And you know, Brandon
951
00:43:46,522 --> 00:43:48,826
Schultz loves that movie
952
00:43:48,938 --> 00:43:51,852
and, I do too. And a lot of people, you
953
00:43:51,876 --> 00:43:54,854
know, they may have seen it, they don't remember it or, you know, they're like, you
954
00:43:54,862 --> 00:43:57,782
know, what is this, children? But when we explained what was going on
955
00:43:57,806 --> 00:44:00,742
and then talked about the actual making of the film and some
956
00:44:00,766 --> 00:44:03,590
of the shots of the film, like the, you know, that one
957
00:44:03,710 --> 00:44:06,290
shot, like, oh, my God, it's like
958
00:44:07,230 --> 00:44:10,100
Chef's Kiss. Jesus. Yes. people
959
00:44:10,140 --> 00:44:12,964
went back and watched the movie and then, you know, made comments that, oh,
960
00:44:13,012 --> 00:44:15,924
my God, you really. This is such a great film. And I
961
00:44:15,932 --> 00:44:18,740
think I, I would like my listeners to
962
00:44:18,780 --> 00:44:20,820
have their level of film
963
00:44:20,940 --> 00:44:23,876
appreciation raised that you're
964
00:44:23,908 --> 00:44:26,836
not just watching a movie and eating the popcorn. You know, you're
965
00:44:26,868 --> 00:44:29,780
looking at the cuts and you're looking at
966
00:44:29,820 --> 00:44:32,580
the camera angles and you're looking at the lighting and
967
00:44:32,620 --> 00:44:35,412
you're looking at the costuming. And, you
968
00:44:35,436 --> 00:44:38,286
know, maybe you have to watch the movie twice, but
969
00:44:38,358 --> 00:44:41,108
hey, that's a good thing. you know, maybe
970
00:44:41,204 --> 00:44:44,052
watch it once the story and the second time you're getting all the
971
00:44:44,076 --> 00:44:46,400
aesthetics and the beauty of
972
00:44:46,860 --> 00:44:49,844
filmmaking that I just think it's one
973
00:44:49,852 --> 00:44:51,600
of the greatest art forms ever.
974
00:44:52,220 --> 00:44:55,142
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. As, as far as, as you, as you're planning your
975
00:44:55,166 --> 00:44:58,012
second season, have there been
976
00:44:58,036 --> 00:45:00,746
any recommendations that you. From, from
977
00:45:00,858 --> 00:45:03,612
your audience that, you're going to incorporate,
978
00:45:03,862 --> 00:45:05,482
into your. Into the show?
979
00:45:06,042 --> 00:45:08,956
>> Sabrina Wood: I haven't heard. Yeah, well, gosh, I don't know how
980
00:45:08,964 --> 00:45:11,312
many people want us to do like, Planet of the Apes.
981
00:45:11,972 --> 00:45:14,916
Logan's, run has been suggested. There's so many. I
982
00:45:14,924 --> 00:45:17,862
got. I got to do 14 episodes. And, this
983
00:45:17,902 --> 00:45:20,774
is so many to pick from. But Logan's Run is
984
00:45:20,798 --> 00:45:23,542
like m. You know, I don't know what else I can say
985
00:45:23,582 --> 00:45:26,322
about Planet of the Apes that's been so done
986
00:45:26,692 --> 00:45:29,612
that, you know, maybe. But, you know,
987
00:45:29,652 --> 00:45:32,604
it's. It's always good. I. You know, the thing. Okay, here's what I
988
00:45:32,628 --> 00:45:35,580
was thinking to do if, if not
989
00:45:35,636 --> 00:45:38,236
just Planet of the Apes, I wanted to do a Charlton Heston
990
00:45:38,284 --> 00:45:41,228
trilogy. What do you Think of this idea, Will, because I wanted
991
00:45:41,260 --> 00:45:43,724
to do Planet of the Ape, Soy and Green and
992
00:45:43,748 --> 00:45:46,668
Omega man, which he made all three in a span
993
00:45:46,700 --> 00:45:49,644
of maybe five years. And I was like, yep. What was going on
994
00:45:49,668 --> 00:45:51,752
with Charlton at this time that he was making?
995
00:45:53,302 --> 00:45:55,966
>> Will: That's a great idea. Yeah.
996
00:45:56,014 --> 00:45:56,502
Yeah.
997
00:45:56,892 --> 00:45:58,788
>> Sabrina Wood: well, maybe you should do it with me.
998
00:45:58,940 --> 00:46:01,908
>> Will: Okay. Maybe, you know, I need to watch Soul and Green
999
00:46:01,940 --> 00:46:04,756
again. I. Oh, gosh, it's probably been about
1000
00:46:04,844 --> 00:46:06,564
15 years or so since the last time.
1001
00:46:06,588 --> 00:46:06,868
>> Sabrina Wood: I.
1002
00:46:06,940 --> 00:46:09,908
>> Will: Probably longer since I've watched that film.
1003
00:46:09,980 --> 00:46:12,692
And, you know, of course, it's been parodied and just like
1004
00:46:12,732 --> 00:46:15,702
Planet of the Apes, so, you know, so many times. But,
1005
00:46:15,952 --> 00:46:17,492
you know, I'll be down for that.
1006
00:46:18,022 --> 00:46:21,022
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah. All right. We might just have come up with an episode here.
1007
00:46:21,142 --> 00:46:23,758
Yeah. The Chuck Heston
1008
00:46:23,870 --> 00:46:26,782
trilogy, because Story and
1009
00:46:26,822 --> 00:46:29,774
Green, that's a story. And I. You know, and
1010
00:46:29,798 --> 00:46:32,798
I'll tell you honestly, I don't know whether it's based on a book or whatever.
1011
00:46:32,830 --> 00:46:35,774
I really don't know anything about the background of that movie. And I would
1012
00:46:35,798 --> 00:46:38,014
like to know, because it's an amazing story.
1013
00:46:38,198 --> 00:46:38,622
>> Will: Yeah.
1014
00:46:38,622 --> 00:46:41,562
>> Sabrina Wood: Omega Man, I know, is based on another book.
1015
00:46:41,562 --> 00:46:44,322
Ah. A very famous book. and then, you know, like, I Am
1016
00:46:44,362 --> 00:46:47,250
Legend is pretty much the same story again,
1017
00:46:47,306 --> 00:46:50,042
but, I believe that's right. I think. Yes.
1018
00:46:50,302 --> 00:46:53,190
so I would like to. I would kind of like to go deeper into those
1019
00:46:53,246 --> 00:46:56,150
three with Chuck, because I. You know, despite how
1020
00:46:56,206 --> 00:46:59,126
he went out, Charlton Nelson was one of
1021
00:46:59,134 --> 00:47:01,526
my favorite. Come on, Judah. Ben
1022
00:47:01,574 --> 00:47:03,402
Hur. Listen.
1023
00:47:03,742 --> 00:47:04,682
Listen.
1024
00:47:05,182 --> 00:47:06,902
>> Will: For sure. For sure. Yeah.
1025
00:47:06,982 --> 00:47:07,722
>> Sabrina Wood: Guy.
1026
00:47:08,132 --> 00:47:10,552
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's. You know,
1027
00:47:11,092 --> 00:47:13,964
they don't make them, like. They don't make him like him anymore. Right. I'm not
1028
00:47:13,988 --> 00:47:16,428
talking about his politics or whatever. It's just as far as
1029
00:47:16,500 --> 00:47:19,404
exactly that. That era
1030
00:47:19,468 --> 00:47:22,012
of filmmaking with so many people.
1031
00:47:22,132 --> 00:47:24,352
>> Sabrina Wood: That film was directed by whom?
1032
00:47:25,172 --> 00:47:25,788
William, Wyler.
1033
00:47:25,884 --> 00:47:28,764
>> Will: Weller. That's right. Oh, that's right.
1034
00:47:28,932 --> 00:47:29,100
Ah.
1035
00:47:31,220 --> 00:47:32,076
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, my God.
1036
00:47:32,108 --> 00:47:32,720
>> Will: Yeah.
1037
00:47:34,210 --> 00:47:36,298
>> Sabrina Wood: After I get off of here, because I haven't seen that in
1038
00:47:36,354 --> 00:47:37,230
ages.
1039
00:47:37,810 --> 00:47:40,794
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. And I think, you know, I think Solen Green. I can't remember if the
1040
00:47:40,802 --> 00:47:43,700
book. I, think. I, don't know if it was novelization from the film
1041
00:47:43,756 --> 00:47:46,644
or Vice or if they took it. yeah, and
1042
00:47:46,668 --> 00:47:49,220
folks down in the chat, you know, let us know because I. I don't
1043
00:47:49,236 --> 00:47:52,164
know right off the top of my head. Of course it'll come to me, like, right after
1044
00:47:52,188 --> 00:47:55,162
we get done recording here. But, yeah, that's.
1045
00:47:55,242 --> 00:47:58,154
That era, was definitely, yeah. They don't make them
1046
00:47:58,178 --> 00:48:00,570
like that anymore. They really don't.
1047
00:48:00,746 --> 00:48:03,610
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, the sci fi that was coming out in the 70s, like, that was
1048
00:48:03,666 --> 00:48:05,022
really dark.
1049
00:48:05,442 --> 00:48:05,818
>> Will: Yeah.
1050
00:48:05,850 --> 00:48:08,826
>> Sabrina Wood: You know, you had like, Andromeda Strain and, you
1051
00:48:08,834 --> 00:48:11,702
know, Green and. Oh, man,
1052
00:48:12,642 --> 00:48:14,954
you know, the ending to these movies were not
1053
00:48:15,058 --> 00:48:15,702
good.
1054
00:48:16,002 --> 00:48:18,742
>> Will: No, no. Clockwork Orange is another one.
1055
00:48:19,762 --> 00:48:21,738
>> Sabrina Wood: yeah, it was rough. It was rough.
1056
00:48:21,930 --> 00:48:24,282
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah, those
1057
00:48:24,322 --> 00:48:27,262
dystopian films were. Yeah,
1058
00:48:28,002 --> 00:48:30,906
it's like a whole. Yeah, yeah,
1059
00:48:30,954 --> 00:48:33,866
yeah, for sure, for sure. So in the time we
1060
00:48:33,874 --> 00:48:36,790
have left here, tell me, so speaking of your
1061
00:48:36,798 --> 00:48:39,526
second season, when will it kick off and what other
1062
00:48:39,566 --> 00:48:42,430
projects do you, have coming? I know, I think, I know when I was
1063
00:48:42,518 --> 00:48:45,454
talking with, Derek, who was on our
1064
00:48:45,478 --> 00:48:48,398
show a few weeks ago, talking. We were talking about his show
1065
00:48:48,470 --> 00:48:51,162
on the, on your, on your network, your podcast network.
1066
00:48:51,432 --> 00:48:53,842
When. When are you guys going to be returning?
1067
00:48:53,842 --> 00:48:56,812
>> Sabrina Wood: we're gonna start the first, sense and go. Sci
1068
00:48:56,828 --> 00:48:59,340
Fi episode will, will drop on January
1069
00:48:59,492 --> 00:49:01,774
29th at 9:30pm
1070
00:49:01,937 --> 00:49:04,588
live with Dr. Chandra Prescott
1071
00:49:04,636 --> 00:49:07,532
Weinstein. And we will be doing The Wandering Earth 2.
1072
00:49:07,588 --> 00:49:10,556
That is the one where we're gonna build engines and put them on the
1073
00:49:10,580 --> 00:49:13,580
Earth and on moon and push the moon off and push
1074
00:49:13,612 --> 00:49:16,548
the Earth out to the solar system because the sun is going to
1075
00:49:16,556 --> 00:49:19,476
go nova. I mean, why wouldn't you
1076
00:49:19,500 --> 00:49:22,196
want to see this movie? Yeah,
1077
00:49:22,260 --> 00:49:25,076
from China, which I, they can make a
1078
00:49:25,100 --> 00:49:27,620
film. I tell you, the CGI in this one
1079
00:49:27,692 --> 00:49:30,372
is great. I'm not a huge
1080
00:49:30,468 --> 00:49:33,348
fan of a lot of CGI films,
1081
00:49:33,476 --> 00:49:36,314
but, this is spot on. This is
1082
00:49:36,354 --> 00:49:38,814
like, wow, wow.
1083
00:49:39,314 --> 00:49:41,894
So a very kind of Independence Day feel.
1084
00:49:42,614 --> 00:49:45,354
you know, a little bit of. A little bit of,
1085
00:49:45,584 --> 00:49:48,388
foundation. There's a lot of, A lot of
1086
00:49:48,556 --> 00:49:51,242
a, Ah, lot of memories, getting kicked off
1087
00:49:51,298 --> 00:49:54,234
here. So check this movie out. Wandering Earth
1088
00:49:54,314 --> 00:49:57,082
2. It is a prequel of the Wandering Earth.
1089
00:49:57,178 --> 00:49:59,802
This is. Even though this is two, this one happens before
1090
00:49:59,858 --> 00:50:02,614
Wandering Earth. And
1091
00:50:02,914 --> 00:50:05,722
the theme this year for the season is. Is
1092
00:50:05,778 --> 00:50:08,362
international. I, I really want to bring in
1093
00:50:08,418 --> 00:50:11,136
more films from sci fi around the
1094
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:13,824
world. You know, I want to do Attack the Block, which
1095
00:50:13,864 --> 00:50:16,304
is, you know, located in, In
1096
00:50:16,344 --> 00:50:18,810
London. I, want to do Train to
1097
00:50:18,834 --> 00:50:21,708
Busan, in Korea district,
1098
00:50:22,150 --> 00:50:24,858
nine, South Africa. So,
1099
00:50:25,258 --> 00:50:27,778
you know, and all of them telling dystopian
1100
00:50:27,858 --> 00:50:28,598
stories.
1101
00:50:30,538 --> 00:50:33,346
>> Will: Oh, you know. Yeah, well,
1102
00:50:33,402 --> 00:50:36,196
you know, they're, They're. They're could be.
1103
00:50:36,252 --> 00:50:39,172
Not. Not that I, you know. Well, you know, that may be
1104
00:50:39,180 --> 00:50:42,048
the mood. I'll just, I'll just put it I'll just leave it there.
1105
00:50:42,428 --> 00:50:45,108
Yeah. That many people may be filling these
1106
00:50:45,148 --> 00:50:45,728
days.
1107
00:50:46,508 --> 00:50:49,332
>> Sabrina Wood: Right, right. But you know, if it's not. If it's
1108
00:50:49,380 --> 00:50:52,230
not, international, then I definitely want to. I want
1109
00:50:52,254 --> 00:50:54,710
to show more films that have black
1110
00:50:54,814 --> 00:50:57,670
cast, black storytellers or something like
1111
00:50:57,694 --> 00:51:00,644
that. You know, being a sci fi sister, being the cinnamon cinephile.
1112
00:51:00,766 --> 00:51:03,616
Let's get that out there. But, you know, I always want. I always
1113
00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:06,044
want to. I always want to spotlight the black people,
1114
00:51:06,574 --> 00:51:09,394
because I think there's some storytellers that don't get,
1115
00:51:10,934 --> 00:51:13,918
don't get the platform. And that's one of the
1116
00:51:13,926 --> 00:51:16,904
reasons why I became a film reviewer. It's,
1117
00:51:16,854 --> 00:51:19,744
Did you know that of all the film reviewers in
1118
00:51:19,784 --> 00:51:22,724
the United States, only 4% of them are black females?
1119
00:51:23,224 --> 00:51:26,140
>> Will: Really? What that low?
1120
00:51:26,312 --> 00:51:26,932
4.
1121
00:51:27,068 --> 00:51:29,684
>> Sabrina Wood: Wow. So if you have a
1122
00:51:29,724 --> 00:51:32,596
story that is a lead by. Of a
1123
00:51:32,620 --> 00:51:35,556
black female telling like a romance or something, the
1124
00:51:35,580 --> 00:51:38,420
chances that you'll get it reviewed, that it'll make it into Rotten
1125
00:51:38,452 --> 00:51:40,820
Tomatoes and get the required
1126
00:51:41,012 --> 00:51:43,988
five reviewers to review it so that it gets
1127
00:51:44,036 --> 00:51:46,676
on the meter and people look at it is slim and
1128
00:51:46,700 --> 00:51:47,364
none.
1129
00:51:47,524 --> 00:51:50,356
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, that's a
1130
00:51:50,380 --> 00:51:50,868
film that you.
1131
00:51:50,876 --> 00:51:53,678
>> Sabrina Wood: Need to watch that got like, no attention.
1132
00:51:53,806 --> 00:51:56,270
None. Because it's black female
1133
00:51:56,302 --> 00:51:58,674
leads, fast colors.
1134
00:51:59,734 --> 00:52:01,194
>> Will: Yeah, I haven't heard of it.
1135
00:52:04,064 --> 00:52:06,936
>> Sabrina Wood: Lorraine Tucson. And if you know those two
1136
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:09,926
names, I love you. but Google, you know, everybody knows her. If
1137
00:52:09,950 --> 00:52:12,676
you see her, she's been in Belle. She was in, the
1138
00:52:12,780 --> 00:52:15,324
Marvel series, with
1139
00:52:15,274 --> 00:52:17,930
Loki. What's it, you know, when they would go back and forth.
1140
00:52:17,962 --> 00:52:20,646
Yeah. and, this movie is about,
1141
00:52:20,750 --> 00:52:23,382
you know, this family of black women who have
1142
00:52:23,438 --> 00:52:25,910
superpowers and climate change is involved.
1143
00:52:26,022 --> 00:52:28,886
Unfortunately, this movie was directed by a female.
1144
00:52:28,950 --> 00:52:31,910
It stars black females. And so it got like no review,
1145
00:52:31,982 --> 00:52:34,502
no press, no play, hardly any
1146
00:52:34,558 --> 00:52:37,510
distribution. When, ah, it came out, they. They opened
1147
00:52:37,542 --> 00:52:39,652
it in 25 movie theaters
1148
00:52:39,838 --> 00:52:40,564
total.
1149
00:52:41,424 --> 00:52:41,880
>> Will: Really.
1150
00:52:41,952 --> 00:52:44,648
>> Sabrina Wood: So everybody's like, well, but go and watch Fast
1151
00:52:44,696 --> 00:52:47,400
Color because it is. It was one of the best sci fi
1152
00:52:47,432 --> 00:52:49,944
films to come out back in. But nobody saw
1153
00:52:49,984 --> 00:52:50,520
it.
1154
00:52:50,672 --> 00:52:53,112
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, yeah. This first I've heard of it. So.
1155
00:52:53,168 --> 00:52:55,684
Yeah. And to your point, I mean, that's just,
1156
00:52:55,904 --> 00:52:58,412
the. Is criminally, how
1157
00:52:58,468 --> 00:53:01,186
underrepresented, black reviewers and black
1158
00:53:01,290 --> 00:53:03,692
female reviewers in particular are.
1159
00:53:03,858 --> 00:53:06,566
Are, in. In the. In the film, in, you
1160
00:53:06,590 --> 00:53:09,354
know, space. you know, because.
1161
00:53:09,474 --> 00:53:11,994
Yeah, I mean, you know, because, you know, and just Even looking at
1162
00:53:12,034 --> 00:53:14,912
YouTubes and other things, I mean, you know, I think, it's great
1163
00:53:14,968 --> 00:53:17,952
that you. That the Sci Fi sisters came together because,
1164
00:53:18,088 --> 00:53:20,784
you know, and that's one of the reasons why I did sort of my kickoff show.
1165
00:53:20,824 --> 00:53:23,564
Because one of the things I found for myself was
1166
00:53:24,184 --> 00:53:27,074
with watching Picard, I was just like, there
1167
00:53:27,114 --> 00:53:29,534
was just a. Not many black
1168
00:53:29,884 --> 00:53:32,804
male, female people out there reviewing these
1169
00:53:32,844 --> 00:53:35,492
shows and talking about these shows and having our perspectives
1170
00:53:35,588 --> 00:53:37,104
and. And. And
1171
00:53:38,684 --> 00:53:40,964
so, you know, it was just.
1172
00:53:41,004 --> 00:53:42,304
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, I'm telling you.
1173
00:53:45,404 --> 00:53:47,304
Yeah, yeah,
1174
00:53:48,364 --> 00:53:51,268
yeah, it was. You know, people were loving
1175
00:53:51,316 --> 00:53:54,164
it. And we said. I said this always, like, really being
1176
00:53:54,204 --> 00:53:56,948
hostile to black actors in this. Is anybody
1177
00:53:56,996 --> 00:53:59,924
noticing how many black people are getting killed in this.
1178
00:53:59,964 --> 00:54:02,900
In this show? You just. First seeing. You just killed
1179
00:54:02,932 --> 00:54:05,732
the black alien boy. Like, you knifed him. You
1180
00:54:05,788 --> 00:54:08,612
knifed him. He was there for 20
1181
00:54:08,668 --> 00:54:11,668
seconds. I said, well, why bother putting all that makeup on him if you could
1182
00:54:11,676 --> 00:54:14,580
just go and kill him off anyway? I said, just make him a troll. Put some spots
1183
00:54:14,612 --> 00:54:17,476
on and call it a day. You gave him all these prosthetics and then
1184
00:54:17,500 --> 00:54:20,468
you killed him. I was like. Anyway. But, yeah,
1185
00:54:20,516 --> 00:54:21,544
Picard had a.
1186
00:54:21,544 --> 00:54:24,480
>> Sabrina Wood: We do. There was a lot of things in that that just kind of rubbed us the wrong
1187
00:54:24,512 --> 00:54:27,346
way from the beginning, and we just thought. Thought was a little better than
1188
00:54:27,370 --> 00:54:30,274
that. But, yeah, we like to call out when they're doing
1189
00:54:30,314 --> 00:54:32,418
that, you know, it's like, no. Ah, no, no, no.
1190
00:54:32,506 --> 00:54:35,410
>> Will: Yeah, no, no. Yeah, for. I think,
1191
00:54:35,482 --> 00:54:38,422
you know, I know the third
1192
00:54:38,478 --> 00:54:40,404
season was. Was,
1193
00:54:42,064 --> 00:54:44,844
one that, You know, it was sort of that eighth
1194
00:54:44,940 --> 00:54:47,496
season of the Next Generation everybody had hoped for.
1195
00:54:47,796 --> 00:54:50,770
So it did redeem itself. But, But at the end of the
1196
00:54:50,778 --> 00:54:53,188
day, it's still, you know, I have an honest thought.
1197
00:54:53,212 --> 00:54:55,136
>> Sabrina Wood: They went and got Beverly. Thank you.
1198
00:54:55,436 --> 00:54:58,084
>> Will: Yeah. Yeah. For real. For real. But honestly, I haven't
1199
00:54:58,100 --> 00:55:01,098
rewatched it since, Since I watched it the first time. I.
1200
00:55:01,122 --> 00:55:03,914
I just wanted to, you know, there's some things I'll go back and revisit. I've
1201
00:55:03,930 --> 00:55:06,126
revisited Discovery. I've revisited
1202
00:55:06,626 --> 00:55:09,306
you, obviously. Strange new worlds, but even
1203
00:55:09,346 --> 00:55:09,882
lower decks.
1204
00:55:09,914 --> 00:55:12,826
>> Sabrina Wood: But they did DS9 wrong on that one,
1205
00:55:12,866 --> 00:55:15,850
too. They just, they just. I don't understand. You
1206
00:55:15,858 --> 00:55:18,588
know, they just made like. You went back and got the
1207
00:55:18,612 --> 00:55:21,116
DS9 storyline, and you didn't bring anybody from
1208
00:55:21,156 --> 00:55:24,138
DS9 or, any character from DS9
1209
00:55:24,242 --> 00:55:27,178
in to tell that story. You know, you
1210
00:55:27,202 --> 00:55:29,802
didn't bring. You got shape shifters and
1211
00:55:29,874 --> 00:55:32,086
whatever going on. You know,
1212
00:55:32,546 --> 00:55:33,806
okay, whatever.
1213
00:55:34,226 --> 00:55:36,954
>> Will: Yeah, they're like, well, we had wharf, but. Yeah, but we're
1214
00:55:37,050 --> 00:55:39,866
starting on tng. Yeah. Yeah. There's so many
1215
00:55:39,906 --> 00:55:41,846
things that were part of that third season
1216
00:55:42,826 --> 00:55:45,684
tng. Yeah, yeah. my wife never.
1217
00:55:45,740 --> 00:55:48,548
She, she didn't get a chance to fully watch DS9, so
1218
00:55:48,572 --> 00:55:51,428
whenever those, those elements of the third season were
1219
00:55:51,452 --> 00:55:54,324
popping up, I was like, yeah, I was like. I, I was like
1220
00:55:54,380 --> 00:55:57,368
over there having, like, my nerd fit, and then, and so
1221
00:55:57,392 --> 00:56:00,280
I would have to like, you know, the whole the Dominion War, changeling
1222
00:56:00,328 --> 00:56:02,824
arc. I mean, all that kind of stuff. I'm like, yeah, so we
1223
00:56:02,960 --> 00:56:05,944
gotta have a. We gotta have us. You. This is a
1224
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:08,418
gap in her. Star Trek and she's a big fan,
1225
00:56:08,592 --> 00:56:10,076
but, yeah, herself.
1226
00:56:12,096 --> 00:56:14,968
Star Trek lore. I was like, I gotta, I gotta. I, I need
1227
00:56:14,992 --> 00:56:16,796
to fill that gap for you, sweetie.
1228
00:56:17,216 --> 00:56:20,024
>> Sabrina Wood: Now, did you watch Star Trek before she married you or
1229
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:20,676
after?
1230
00:56:21,376 --> 00:56:24,040
>> Will: Before. Before he grew up with. Yeah, yeah,
1231
00:56:24,168 --> 00:56:27,098
her father was a big fan and, so, yeah,

00:56:27,162 --> 00:56:29,796
she. Yeah, so, yeah, so she's
1233
00:56:29,876 --> 00:56:30,180
dating.
1234
00:56:30,228 --> 00:56:32,068
>> Sabrina Wood: The guy that doesn't know Star Trek.
1235
00:56:32,212 --> 00:56:35,154
>> Will: Yeah, she's. She's a big fan. we have, we have a. We have a rule
1236
00:56:35,170 --> 00:56:37,770
in our house that, we. We can't watch.
1237
00:56:37,908 --> 00:56:40,878
We. You know, whenever a new show is on, we have to. We have to
1238
00:56:40,902 --> 00:56:42,350
watch it together, so.
1239
00:56:42,518 --> 00:56:44,046
>> Sabrina Wood: Oh, my. Okay.
1240
00:56:44,126 --> 00:56:46,734
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, so, yeah, so it's, it's
1241
00:56:46,750 --> 00:56:48,716
definitely. We can't. Yeah,
1242
00:56:49,526 --> 00:56:50,734
yeah, that's a good.
1243
00:56:50,870 --> 00:56:51,626
>> Sabrina Wood: I mean.
1244
00:56:52,646 --> 00:56:55,518
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, so that's a good rule. But I have to tell them, like, look, you know,
1245
00:56:55,542 --> 00:56:58,414
there's a 40 hour, you know, we got, we can't go too long
1246
00:56:58,470 --> 00:57:00,786
because, you know, the Internet. Yeah, that's true.
1247
00:57:01,206 --> 00:57:04,094
>> Sabrina Wood: Don't be taking all day to see the Dag on thing if I gotta wait
1248
00:57:04,110 --> 00:57:06,656
for you. So let's go here.
1249
00:57:06,956 --> 00:57:09,296
Yeah, set a time and let's be there.
1250
00:57:09,596 --> 00:57:12,548
>> Will: Yeah. Speaking of, Speaking of Trek, before. Before we go,
1251
00:57:12,652 --> 00:57:15,096
I, I know there's the. Is, it. The Trek Talks, the big, fundraiser,
1252
00:57:15,550 --> 00:57:18,158
that's coming out. Yeah, you guys are gonna be a part of that. Yeah,
1253
00:57:18,190 --> 00:57:20,910
yeah, yeah. Tell me, Tell us. Tell. Tell
1254
00:57:21,046 --> 00:57:22,558
the folks a little bit more about that.
1255
00:57:22,630 --> 00:57:25,224
>> Sabrina Wood: Yes, yes, Trek Talks, which is, the
1256
00:57:25,248 --> 00:57:27,682
brainchild of Bill, and Dan from,
1257
00:57:27,982 --> 00:57:30,852
Trek Geeks, is a fundraiser for the Hollywood Food
1258
00:57:30,892 --> 00:57:33,700
Coalition. Also, not just, not just Bill and Dan, but also
1259
00:57:33,756 --> 00:57:36,470
John Billingsley from, You know him as Dr. Flocks
1260
00:57:36,566 --> 00:57:39,446
and a lot of other people in Star Trek that are on that board. That's how I
1261
00:57:39,454 --> 00:57:42,214
met Dave David Livingston. He was on the board a few years
1262
00:57:42,238 --> 00:57:44,372
ago for Trek Talk. So, you know,
1263
00:57:44,592 --> 00:57:47,512
Gene, John Roddenberry's Son, everybody's on this thing.
1264
00:57:47,552 --> 00:57:50,552
So all trying to raise money for the Hollywood Food Coalition,
1265
00:57:50,632 --> 00:57:53,630
which does a really fantastic job of
1266
00:57:53,766 --> 00:57:56,760
feeding, homeless people in la, which
1267
00:57:56,816 --> 00:57:59,752
I think is going to really ramp up
1268
00:57:59,792 --> 00:58:02,792
right now. I mean, I'm so frightened for what's going on in LA right now.
1269
00:58:02,832 --> 00:58:05,640
So my heart is going out to them. So this will be a really
1270
00:58:05,696 --> 00:58:08,584
crucial fundraiser. So people, please listen. It's going
1271
00:58:08,608 --> 00:58:10,112
to be on,
1272
00:58:12,612 --> 00:58:14,012
January 19th.
1273
00:58:14,172 --> 00:58:16,752
>> Will: Yeah, yeah, I guess over the King weekend. Yeah, yeah.

reunion panel. We're going to be, all over there. That is
1277
00:58:26,496 --> 00:58:29,402
behind the scenes being one of the producers. And last
1278
00:58:29,442 --> 00:58:32,186
year we raised about a hundred thousand dollars for the
1279
00:58:32,194 --> 00:58:34,682
Hollywood Food Coalition. And so this year we're looking
1280
00:58:34,722 --> 00:58:37,372
to do even better. And I, I

00:58:37,412 --> 00:58:39,644

01:00:07,606 --> 01:00:10,360
into ElfQuest because of Tanya Scott Thomas.
1313
01:00:11,220 --> 01:00:14,098
love that show. So, I never knew anything
1314
01:00:14,114 --> 01:00:17,058
about ElfQuest until, you know, Tanya came
1315
01:00:17,194 --> 01:00:20,062

01:00:27,726 --> 01:00:30,038
>> Will: That's great. Yeah. That's
1320
01:00:30,054 --> 01:00:32,924
awesome. That's awesome. Yeah, I'm not a big, you
1321
01:00:32,932 --> 01:00:35,884
know, familiar. I'm just. I. I know it entitled only. And that's.
1322
01:00:35,932 --> 01:00:37,932
That's about my, My. The extent of it.
1323
01:00:37,956 --> 01:00:40,172
>> Sabrina Wood: But, you know, I'm sorry, you know what I said.
1324
01:00:40,196 --> 01:00:42,940
>> Will: I know ElfQuest and like, title only that. But
1325
01:00:42,980 --> 01:00:43,880
I never.
1326
01:00:44,900 --> 01:00:47,692
>> Sabrina Wood: Yeah, yeah, you do better than me. I never even
1327
01:00:47,716 --> 01:00:50,466
knew, like, what, but you know what I'm
1328
01:00:50,498 --> 01:00:53,442
telling you. Have you watched Tanya's show? Please
1329
01:00:53,546 --> 01:00:56,306
watch her show, because she is so knowledgeable
1330
01:00:56,338 --> 01:00:59,234
about that. And I was watching because.
1331
01:00:59,322 --> 01:01:02,264
So we're. We're producing the show. So I'm watching it, and I
1332
01:01:02,272 --> 01:01:04,904
didn't know anything about it. I'm listening to her and I'm going like, oh,
1333
01:01:04,952 --> 01:01:07,180
damn, m. I got to get into these books
1334
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:11,768
now. There is some really deep storytelling and those
1335
01:01:11,824 --> 01:01:14,600
fans are as loyal, Star Trek fans.
1336
01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:17,432
So we did a show why Star Trek fans
1337
01:01:17,496 --> 01:01:20,488
would love Elfquest. And it was really. If you
1338
01:01:20,544 --> 01:01:23,512
are a Trekkie, I think Elfquest would
1339
01:01:23,536 --> 01:01:24,900
really appeal to you.
1340
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,472
